Ok so I finished my heatercore today..works good..everything is nice and tight and only like 3 extra screws..which were like screws for pratically nothing...well heres what i think i did but let me ask u guys before i check tomorrow..i think i plugged in one of the harnesses to the back of gauge cluster upside down..because everything on the left side , like the tach and temp..is acting really funny and then when i turn my lights on ..everything is spazing out and only half the cluster lights up..so did i simply plug it in the wrong way or is it something else

Not sure, but aren't all the harnesses a one way only plug? Meaning there is only one way to plug the thing in? I would say that you plugged it in the right way, but just not well enough. Only way to know is to pull it apart again tho'. That's why I always test run everything, when possible, before buttoning up anything. The last time I didn't double check, I had to reattach the speedo cable by reaching from under the dash, and it was a PITA.
