Re: gauge cluster

it'll fit as long as its not digital otherwise you gotta getta different cpu setup, and then you got to take the speedo to a pontiac certified shop and get them to set the gauge to your miles.

Re: gauge cluster

Actually, the 97 digital clusters WILL work in a 93-96 Firebird. Both of my 93 Trans Am's have the 97 digital clusters in them. Everything works as advertised with exception to the fasten seat belt light (doesn't go off) and the TCS OFF light (again, doesn't go off). It's a simple process to open up the cluster and block off those lights though.

If that's the case then the 97 T/A will plug into the 93-98 camaro? Also was 1997 when the T/A went digital?

I'm not sure if it will plug into a camaro or not. Never tried that. Mid 97 is when the gauge cluster swapped from the analog to digital odometer.
