You want to put a second gen dash in a first gen? You want to replace a sexy dash with one that looks like it was designed by an art school dropout?

good luck, i put a 92 cluster in a 79, but it looked like butt, so i finnaly swapped in the whole 92 dash

If i were to replace the dash or even needing to put in a whole new cluster for a first gen like what your saying, i would just make a whole new custom dash. Here's the like to the thread with a diagram for one.
