I remember a while back I saw a big diagram on how to do a swap for the premium digital cluster...any idea where I could find something like that? As long as I know that it IS doable, thats all I need

There's no diagram for the direct swap, but you can modify these two to get what you need

You will need to convert this one

to this one, and then reverse the swap because this is for buttstuffog to digital, you need to do it backwards, digital to buttstuffog

Actually the easiest way would probably be to take the information from these two pages and figure it out yourself and use the above links for general reference for things you might not be sure of:

To get the right side of the digital cluster to work you will have to add wiring to your computer, the same way you wire up a tripminder, since that's what it is:

The amp/fuel/oil/temp guage should all work properly but you will have to change the sensors for the fuel and oil guages.
