No mate high series cluster is ugly IMO but you have to re-wire to put that in your car. I said mid series wich is the ones in the Fairmonts and thats plug and play...this is the mid series cluster...im sorry my dash is stock unlike yours LOL

You will have to add sensers for oil presure and bat level though but who cares if it works or not it looks better than the low series ones.

No need to be good with eletrics plug it in like you plugged that one in and your set to go.


While it is straightforward theres a little more to it

Buy a fit a new Oil Sender for the oil pressure gauge to work. If you wish to keep your original odometer reading you must swap over chips.

And you must add a resistor to the new cluster to have cluster illumination while the park lamps are on at the same time

theres no mention of doing anything for the battery gauge. I assume that part is plug 'n play
