The Tickford Cluster (as in XR's) did have the shifter position showing but is displayed in the lower LCD. The Fairmont one as he has and i have display that in a separate LCD panel.

You should be able to cut it out very very very very varefully, but if you dont want to risk it, you can get a new fairmont face made up in blue with the tickford wings on it on ebay. just another option.

Are we talking putting an XR face onto a fairmont cluster? It wouldn't work. XR speedo's go to 240, fairmont ones only go to 220 iirc.
