Gauge Cluster Options

Was there ever a column shift cluster with a tach in it? If there was does anyone have one they'd be willing to part with?

I'm not too amused not having one and would prefer to avoid adding random gauge pods.

Thanks in advance :)

The full digital cluster has a tach, but I dont think the sport/XR7 buttstuffog cluster was available with a column shift

no, I don't think buttstuffog clusters had both.. I also have to make an buttstuffog cluster with a column shift for the vert.

I've got a full digi floor shift cluster. I also have an 88 sport buttstuffog cluster in Ohio but that was also floor shift. I'll go without the gear indicator rather than the tach, it's going 5 speed eventually anyway. I do need a digi cluster though since I switched the color of my gauges to a purple in my sport and u can't read them during the day (I'd use that digi cluster)

Let me know on that. I don't even need a working one really, just the gels for the color if anyone has a really busted up one, lol

I thought it was part of the dash surround? Been a while since I have been that far into it. Maybe I'll do the w-2 mod to re-familiarize myself again.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
