What if I swapped the gauge cluster from my '83 GSL to my '82 GX? Would that handle the speedo gear problem? I want to do the '83 swap anyways, and I figured that if I put in for a set of indiglo gauges, I could swap the parts from my '83 GSL and that way, it'd be a direct swap when I get the new gauges.

So, my question is: What's the easiest way to approach the speedo gear problem for the speedometer?

I used the speedometer mechanism and speedo face from an 83 and now have mine with a custom gauge up to 140mph....

If you change the complete cluster from an 83 to an 82 it will work fine....

The '83 gauge was a one year wonder...as Reyes and Frankenrex have pointed out, though, the gauge mechanicals appear to be interchangeable down to the plugs. I have never attempted such insanity myself, though...look at the other gauge thread for the pic that has those two years side by side and you'll see the differences right off the bat...

Well, I don't know if the offer is still valid or not, but I have an 83 and I think something like this *might* appeal to me at the right price.
I am not adding my name to the list of definately interested, just because I am not 100% certain I would actually want to undertake the mod, without seeing it in a car first.

Try to use the last box so we don't lose the names of peeps committing...with the last two additions, we now have 21 commits and I'm PM'ing Manntis to see what he thinks of this request at this point in time...

I'm not post whoring, I'm trying to keep the above "quote" box clean....the names that are missing have either died or have PM'd me back saying they are no longer interested. The names left in the above post are the die-hard group still looking for that Final Solution...lol
