install new cluster

i just purchased a used cluster for my 2000 2.2. the new one is out of a 2002. how would i go about installing it? does anyone know of any good sites that show me how or something along those lines? that would be great. or if anyone could give me a step by step.

First you want to disconnect your battery,
then take your dash off,
the cluster is skrewed in by to skrews,
i recommend you dissconnect the the two cables,
the first one is easy to disconnect,
the second smaller one to the the right,
you have to unclickt he side binds,
then with a skrewdriver,
lift up a little latch and slowly with some pressure pull it off.
Pretty much from there u put the new one in,
and then connect,
but before you decided to put your dash back on,
connect your battery,
and check if the cluster works,
try to start your car,
if the theft light blinks....
most likely you won't be able to start your car,
the ecu will cut off all electric flow to any electronics,
or the car will start,
then suddenly turn off,
this means,
you will have to reflash "reprogramm" your ecu,
which cost more money,
unless you have connections,
but hopefully the car starts without any problems,
if its works then,
put your dash back and and you're set,
unless you want to swap your milage meters too....
you would have to take apart the cluster....
which is troublesome.

goodluck

ya, i installed it today. thanks for the reply though.

First off he has a 2000 model, so there is no milage meter to swap as the milage is digital and stored in the ECU. Second if the cluster is from any 00-02 model, it will work. I did the same swap so I could have a tac :)

Bh04 did you get one with a tac?
