Has anyone changed or know anyone who has changed their 93-96 dash and console to a 97up dash. I am considering doing this since I found a dash and a console out of a 99 camaro for 350 bucks. I have a 96 camaro and I would like to know how big of a job this could turn out to be.

Wrong they are not the same. They are both obd2 true but that is about it they don't work together and aren't wired alike. I took the cluster out of a 98 Z28 and put it into my 2000 V6 and it fried the circuit board.2002 M5 Bright Metallic Silver <br />*Fully loaded and modded<br /><br />2005 GSXR 750<br />*Micron Serpent Race Exhaust *K&N Filter *Power Commander *Trying to hit 200 MPH!<br /><br />1970 SS 454 Chevelle Cortez Silver<br />*It can pass anything but a gas station

Hey V6Devil, didn't you put a 155mph gauge cluster in place of your 120mph one? Didn't you fix the tach by swaping a resistor from the V6 tach to the V8 tach? Am I right here, everything worked fine? None of the gauges were damaged?Wayne<br />94 5 spd Camaro<br />Turbo/Intercooled<br /> <a href=\"http://www.geocities.com/Mustang732/cars.htm\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.geocities.com/Mustang732/cars.htm</a> <br /><br />Megasquirt Stand-alone EFI controling fuel/spark w/ wideband:<br /> <a href=\"http://home.att.net/~basic-4/2ndMegasquirt/NewMegasquirt.html\" target=\"_blank\">http://home.att.net/~basic-4/2ndMegasquirt/NewMegasquirt.html</a>
