Can't find the right guages overlays
Tuesday, March 21, 2006 12:24 PM
I've been on eBay, CarDomain, google, ask.com, I find everything BUT what I want. I want the white-face, reverse glow guges for a 95-99 Cavalier, 5-spd WITH tach. And I want the end pieces for the warning lights too. I've found without tach, I've found for automatics, I've found for 2000 and up, and 94 and earlier. I've found the retarded flamed ones, and all the other stuff. Where am I going wrong here?

Oh, and one other thing, the trim piece that goes around the guages and the radio seems to have sagged above the guages. Is that common and how can I fix it?

It's an RS. Is there a difference in guages between the RS and the Z? I thought the interior was the same except for the seats and door cloth.

the RS came with a tach like the Zs did, and the auto RS came with the Z24 4 speed trans but bolted up to a 2.2 i believe. i say spend the extra cash and go to blackcat custom and get one they are far superior than the ebay ones, and you can get them any way you want!!!!

no, the 5 speed dont have the gear indicator on the cluster like the autos do

these ones were almost close to being what you needed, but since you have a 97 your tripometer is seperate from your odometer. these gauges are meant for some 5 speed 98s and all 5 speed 99 Z24/RS cavs which has the trip/odometer in one digital display. instead of the seperate ones like the 95-97and some 98s. these
