    Interior and Upholstery 1993 Instrument Cluster cover

    The plastic cover or the lense? Cover just get a cheap roll of some Matte black automotive wrap. I used some Matte carbon fiber stuff on my 79 dash just to make it look uniform on a budget since it was in such sad shape. Dull enough to not have a glare issue.

    Clutch cable suggestions

    It's 83-86 thunder bird turbo coupe/ cougar xr7 cable, 87 those went hydraulic for the T bird and cougars dropped the turbo 2.3 option.
