Instrument cluster question

Post by matt00rs25 »

So I was putting in some led bulbs into my 93 ss manual trans car. Pulled up the outer cover a bit for some reason and found the auto trans portion hiding under there. Seemed a little odd since it was a manual. There's no bulbs on the back to illuminate it. So... What have I got. Some one swapped in an auto cluster for some reason or do they all come like this. Started to question the authenticity of my 120k mile ss!

And the LEDs for fun

LED's look awesome!

As far as the Auto Trans Cluster, I have no clue weather all the dash clusters have that underneath or not...

Matt,

I was going this route with my interior as well. Do you have a link to the bulbs you opted to purchase? Thanks!

Yeah, I like the red gauges, they look good!

And yes, all the clusters come with the auto gauge cluster piece hiding under there. My UK gauge cluster was like that.

Here and there. Not much you can do without going full led strips. Still looks fine to me.
