the 96 is electric to. I know the first thing sombody is going to say is "No.. look it's a analog readout" that readout is controled by the intrument cluster module, there is no seedo cable

you would be better off striping the electronics out of a 96 t-45

if you HAVE to cut and splice you can get the connectors from a wrecked 99+ car or order them from a for dealer. the using the wirring diagram for both cars match them up and splice away.

and about the crossmember. best place would be a junkyard
