I did a quick search, but didn't come up with where I could buy/swap my used cluster for a refurbished one, or possibly purchase a new one from someplace. I'm looking on eBay, but don't quite know what to purchase. I know that the older models aren't compatible with the newer clusters, and I should be sure to get one from the same type of car. Suggestions? There are a few issues with it, but it's the fuel gauge that's giving me the most grief.

so first you have to tell us: does your cluster have the grey backplate or the white or the blue?

tim eh?

I'll check and get back to you.

Is there a way to know without tearing up my dash? My car is a 1/89 build. So it's an old bird.

all you have to do is move your cluster out a little bit. loosen the two screws at the top, and pull forward enough to catch the color.
