did you buy a cluster from an 89? that would be why..90-93 the face is widder which is why it has to be filed.

sorry to bump in on your thread, but I am looking to go all black with my interior and get rid of the porno red. I was just wondering what you had used for paint on the door panels and interior pieces. Is it just vinyl or plastic paint? Any info would be great, thanks!

Hey, remember when everyone was giving you chit about not having a v-8, not being able to drive, having a brown car etc...... ? you should use that for your motivation to make this into a killer car... youre doing a hell of a job so far.
