Sam, as I posted earlier this week, some late model clusters were available
about 5 years ago.  I put one in my '84.  Old speedometer, odometer and
cluster itself were bad or marginal.  New cluster is in km not miles so if
you haven't dealt with km could be a problem.  At that time, a list member
provided me with a wiring diagram to make every thing work.  I had to rewire
14-pin connector that comes into cluster.
