I recently posted a thread about my DRL indicator being out. I figured it might be just the bulb, and having to remove the cluster to replace it, I figured "Hey Mike, you always wanted a Tach, why not buy a salvage yard unit and try it?"
So I did. I picked up a '95 4 LT door unit (Mine is a '97 2 door LS)
I searched everywhere, including the GM parts catalog to find out what the OEM p/n was. Turns out any 95-97 S10/S15 p/u or Blazer/Jimmy dash would work. Some knuclehead on ebay told me a '98 unit would fit, but they're more rounded than the squareish units of 95-97. (Turns out only 98-2000 are interchangeable).
It took me all of 45 minutes to remove and replace the boneyard unit ($60.00), and low and behold; it WORKS. YIPEEEEE.
Now, does anybody know how to turn back the digits on the odometer. The unit I got has 158K on it, while my truck only has 46k.
