l67ss Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Would a digital speedometer from say a 94 regal be able to be wired in and work correctly in a 97 monte carlo? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 why would you possibly want to make a squared off cluster work in a car with a very curved dash? if it's for the digital speed, there were police luminas that used a modified cluster that had a digital speed and odometer readout.

Crazy K Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Stock GP used a Cutlass supreme digital UB3 in 95-97 cutlass supreme dash in a 90ish GP. hybrid is where it's at!

RobertISaar Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 huh? so..... that had a 88-91 CS digi UB3 grafted into the cluster carrier of a 95-97 CS, which was then placed into a 90ish GP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 soo... That begs the question... Would/could a UB3 fit into a gen1 gp? I've always missed mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatTheFehl Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 ...and how is it displaying red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 red plastic/vinly sheet would do it...... though light output would be noticably lower. certainly doesn't have a replacement VFD, the cost of that would be stupid-high for a one-off display.

I would actually rather everything light up the chevy/olds blue, but changing out everything in the GTP would take forever. If I did it I wouldn't be as worried about color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke94vert Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I may be completely wrong buy I thought the last year the regals got a digital cluster was 91. I've been trying to find one to put in my 93 regal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertISaar Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 the tach on the digital clusters is driven over the datastream, just like on the cutlass supreme digital UB3, so unless you want a dead tach, you'll need to work something out for that.

l67ss Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Found a curved dash first gen w cutlass with a digital cluster think it was a 95 anyway how bout mamin that cluster work in my monte? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 that doesn't exist from the factory. the 95-97 cutlass supremes got a dash/cluster that is more or less directly compatible with the 94-96 grand prixs (the the regals fit in there somewhere, but i don't know if 94 or 95 started them). in any case, that doesn't sound like a factory cluster.

ManicMechanic Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I just don't do aftermarket anything. I use GM parts whenever possible. Even my stereo is stock but modded so I can plug in my ipod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
