I have the 81-83 Cluster
ok i just got the 81-83 cluster today,
it looks like jose was right,
im pretty sure the faces will need to be erased,
and the cluster will need to be removed to install them,
go to jose's page to see how this is done,
i will upload some templates tommorow

for anyone confused about the gauge installation process go here.
click here to see gauge installation
this is for the 81-83 style but i imagine the 79-80 will be similar

i wouldnt be too worried about erasing them,
i see complete clusters go for $15.00 on ebay all the time,sometimes even $10.00
its the same guy that sells them so i would just get his e-mail and send him a mail to buy them without a auction when the time comes to put the stock back in.
thats only if you wanted to put the stock back in,
maybe for selling reasons?

you could yank a junkyard set as well. Erase those erase and then swap in the hole cluster. Thus, no down time for the seven
Or up the junkyard one in the stock box, since you know your's works, and the junkyard one might be screwy...

I sent in BOTH, (Cause I am COOOL, j/k) But I did send the 79 cluster, and the 80 speedometer...... I have no clue about the erasing part....... I was hoping, he would just make new plastic, and have them on there... That would be his best bet.... I hope it is that way, but if he has to erase them, so be it... THANX LATERZ, Andrew

ok everyone relax,
i found the 80 speedo,
had to dump out the box,
it was loosly pakaged in there.
also for the record.
anyone that has a 79-80 setup i sugest upgradin to a 81-83 setup,
it looks like it is the exact same size and you get these benifits,
a speedo that goes to 130 "if you have an 80"
a functional volt meter that works all the time
an oil pressure gauge "just need the sensor
bright and rear defrost indicators
a nicer layout "IMO"
