El Camino instrument cluster

[JohnO356]

I have an '83 El Camino with "idiot lights", and want to replace the cluster with one that has gauges. Any other model year clusters that are plug and play in this vehicle? I was able to put a '91 cluster in my '88 C1500, which gave me gauges and needles. Just got this Camino and not very familiar with it. Thanks.

I have an 81 El Camino that I did this on. But I changed and upgraded the wiring harness that was for gauges vs idoit lights. I used a wiring harness that I got off of E Bay that was for an 84 El Camino/Monte Carlo that was for use with gauges not "idoit lights".
