You may want to post what you car has for gauges, climate control and what stereo it has as this will more than likely ease the finding of what you are looking for.
can i use the dash wiring from a 89 cougar on my 88 cougar as long as they both have the same motor?? none of the junkyards around me have any 88s they have 87s but only 5.0s and i need a 3.8
so the engine part of that harness, 88 + wiring can be used as long as its a 3.8 motor? and the interior part of that harness,85-88 wiring can be used? correct? then what? just wire them together??
i dont think thats what i need i need the dash harness that goes into speedometer, radio, a/c and ignition and the other plug ins under the dash and the wire harness i need has the fuse box attached.. all the wires are coming from the fuse box
If it's color coded I could probably do it I just need the wires asap to get this thing up.. I have a pregnant girlfriend that needs odd things at odd times lol so no transportation of my own is geting kindof hard
Yeah, basically it would be. Tell ya what, if it's warm this weekend, I'll pull the dash harness from the white car, repin the wires to the cluster as they were originally, take lots of pics, and get it sorted out. Bad thing is, I sold my base digi cluster awhile back, so I have no way of testing it to make sure it would be back as it was.
It's not a huge job to repin the wires, there was only 4 or 5 to do IIRC.
There's a digram on CoolCats.net that shows how to do this. I can repin 'em, or if you feel comfortable doing it, I'll send it to you as-is, your choice. Either/or is fine with me.
that would be great just let me know when youre finished and a price
what does IIRC mean? Sorry, you guys always say it and I don't know what it means.
and I have the harness from the computer that goes across the firewall and plugs into the dash harness.
is it for an 88 3.8 v6? is it for a digital speedometer? and does it have the fuse block attached and the rubber piece that leads the wires through the firewall into the hood?
