Dont ask why...but heres a question regarding the gauge cluster.

Will a SS gauge cluster work on a 5 speed?
I searched and found swaps from 5 speed Gauges to SS and its plug and play correct?

How about the other way around?

anyone?

i think it should work, the ss gauge cluster just adds in the lil shifter thing.. and u dont have a plug for that so it should work...

also remember, the right side portion of the gauge cluster is the same so u can take that side and swap it out to keep ur mileage

What about the needle calibration. SS tach is only half a circle, while 5spd is full circle. I'll be suprise if it works. Let us know.

it will work. needle calibration is correct.

have you try it? you mean 3000 RPM on ss tach is the same as 3000 RPM on 5spd?

Thanks guys...thats Exactly what I needed to know =)

Girl n-a lude - How sure are you on the needle calibration?

The needle calibration will be fine. I went from auto to manual cluster with no ill effects. The only thing you will be missing is a plug for the Gear select indicator. Just plug the other two in and you're all set.
