I have just acquired an instrument cluster from an 85 Turbodiesel
Jetta. Although it appears that the odometer will need to be fixed
(done that a bunch of times) it does have a tach which is what I was
really after. Does anyone know if it is possible to retrofit this
entire cluster in the A1 dash of my 81 Caddy? I know that I would have
to rewire the plugs but that is no real big deal. Also if anyone has
the Bentley for the 85, I would appreciate a shot of the wiring diagram
for the instrument cluster. I think I have it figured out but an
actual diagram would be great. Thanks, hadyen
