What do you think is the rarest cluster combo that came in a W-body? I vote for my 89 Regal Custom GS with the base cluster and console shift!

The digital UB3 wasn't available after 1991 but i once came across an otherwise stock 1993 CS sedan with one, I think it was console shift.

I'd love to put a UB3 into my Regal, since the gear indicator was also digital, column and console shift Regals probably used they same cluster?

Nope, console regal UB3's didn't have a gearshift indicator, the column shift cars did.
I swapped a digi UB3 into my '91 regal GS that came factory with full gauges, and it came out of a column car. Here's the pics:

I've seen bar graph and digits for the Speedometer on CS's and Rivieras/Reattas but I swear the Regal ub3 was the ONLY one to have both the bar graph AND digits for the Tachometer.

There's a lot of space to be had in that GIGANTIC dash cavity those 1st gen regals have. Hell the analog cluster is a full 6 inches wider than the digi cluster, so big in fact that GM made it two pieces!

I HATE those ones, put the gas guage the farthest away. Yeah THAT makes sense!

Ok, has anyone ever seen a 88/89 GP with the BASE cluster? I found a Manual for a 89 GP at the pick n pull one day and apparently, there were 2 clusters available for GP's: the one we all know with the Mechanical Tach, temp, oil, volts, and one with just the digital Gas, Speed and Odo, I have never seen a Base 88/89 GP cluster!

I know for sure several members have that half digi dash in their early GP's.

My favorite cluster. This came from a 5 speed car with a HUD.So it doesn't have the big speed numbers under the arch.

I've seen the base digital cluster in a base 88 GP in the junkyard. Same as the "upscale" cluster, minus the tach.
Here's my upscale cluster (old picture, car has almost 10k more miles on it now)
2004 Pontiac Grand Prix Comp G- ZZP 3" downpipe with high flow cat, U-bend delete, high flow mufflers, K&N drop in... The DD
2008 Ford Ranger XLT- 2.3 DOHC I-4 5-speed- Street truck project in progress...
I forgot about 1991-93 GP full clusters with column shift...I have seen ONE.
