Anyone have the wiring specs for the two round connectors that attach to the rear of the dash? (I've attached pictures from the factory manual) I'm looking for what each connection does so I can wire in my 85 dash to a 83 chasis. I've been able to figure out what MOST wires do from a multi-meter and the 80/85 factory manuals but I'd like to double check my work before I start cutting wires. (crosses fingers)

I've looked at the FAQ links, 80, 85 factory manuals and they are different than the 83. I've checked the haynes manual and http://www.iluvmyrx7.com./1st_gen_manuals.htm too.

I'll post some pics when I'm done restoring my car, this is my second 1st gen. Can't wait to make the mmmmmmmmmm again. This forum is great I've learn a lot about my 7's from it.

 

I get to answer my own post. I took the dive tonight and started cutting wires and it worked out.

Should I do a write up on how to swap a 85 dash into a 83 chasis?

 

yes, you should. LOTS of pics please.

 

Agreed!
