Re: My camaro tach cluster-done!

I thought about putting in the camero speedo also but opted not to for several reasons, would have had to get real creative with the service engine soon, emergency brake, high beam and 4x4 lights. I am still going to have to remote mount the 4x4 light and have not come up with a clean factory look for it yet, any suggestions would be appreciated. if I remember correctly the camero speedo does not have any of the mounting tabs that line up with the tabs in the truck cluster, could have fabbed some but just didn't get to it. The donor camero cluster I had was only an 85mph speedo anyway. My 87 has the speed sensor in the speedo for the converter lockup and I was not sure the camero speedo would be calibrated the same. have to go out of town but am going to try to get around to finishing the project this weekend.
