I just swaped my stock 99GT instrument gauge cluster with a cluster out of a bullitt. I swaped the stock odometer into the new gauge cluster before I started. It will not work
The theft light is flashing and my car won't start. I know I can swap back but is there any way I can get this to work?
Thanks in advance

I believe you have to bring it to Ford and have them make a change to it. Better call up your dealer and make sure.

Yea, just switch out the boards. That's all I did to put one in my '02 and it works great.

I have a 2002 GT and want to do the same thing. May I ask where you bought yours coogietight? And also, are the MPH the same on the Bullitt and GT clusters? And with the swap done correctly your original mileage will show on the new cluster? Thanks, also I tried clicking on the link to the article Spreadman provided but it asks for a Username and Password, it says I have to be a gold member. How can I access the article??

Sorry for the late response
I bought it off ebay. The mileage will stay the same (stock mileage) even when I used the bullit cluster w/o switching the boards the mileage cam up the same.
When I read the autometer directions for their cluster replacement I realized that the directions are spot on for doing the bullitt replacement as well, I just needed to read more carefully. You can get those off their website.

Just installed a set I got off ebay last night. Everything went smoothly. Just glancing on ebay there is a set out of a Mach1 on there right now. Looks to be out of a auto car so it would work with a GT. I think its got 5 days left on the auction. Just a heads up for anyone looking to get some Bullitt/Mach1 gauges.
