Question Gauge Cluster Swap?

I recently purchased a '98 camaro with '95 internals. I want to bring it back to a restomod-type look with as many stock parts as possible.
I can't seem to find any wiring diagrams or any info on swapping out the aftermarket gauges back to stock. Anyone have any pointers?

Also this is my first post, if this thread is in the wrong section let me know

Re: Gauge Cluster Swap?

This will probably get more response in the "General 67-02 F-Body Tech" forum, rather than "Appearance". Just not as many people on this site as there used to be, and the Tech forum is more active.

Are you saying you have a 1995 LT! engine, and a PCM from a 1995 LT1 Camaro, in a 1998 Camaro V6 chassis, but someone removed the 98 Camaro instrument cluster, and substituted aftermarket gauges for all the instruments? And now you want to use a stock instrument cluster? Do you want to use a 95 cluster or a 98 cluster?

The instrument cluster wiring diagrams are shown in the factory service manuals. You can download (free) both the 95 and 98 manuals here, thanks to GaryDoug:

The 95 manual has the instrument cluster wiring diagrams starting on page 8A-81-0

The 98 manual has the instrument cluster wiring diagrams and info starting on page 8-467

I want to use a 98 Z28 Cluster. I want to try and get it back to stock.
The previous owner swapped the internals from a 95 Firebird Formula, and a TH350. Not sure if the transmission helps but it might for any info sake.
Thank you for the manuals!
