softtouch, thank you for posting those scans. The first one (pg 127) shows about half the instrument cluster, do you have the page showing the rest of it?

I think I'm going to buy the 85 EVTM from ebay, but if you have that page it would save me a few days' time. Thanks in advance!

jcassity has the complete evmt for 87. It uses the same dash set ups as 85-88 cars.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I bought a digital cluster from ebay. I'm 99% sure that's what it is.

All of you have really helped me out. I just want to ask if there's anything I can do in return. I've been a lurker here for a few years now, and have never been able to contribute much.

I'm an aircraft electrician in the Air National Guard, I have a bachelor's degree in electronic engineering technology, and a job fixing aircraft electronics. So with that said, if there's any way for me to contribute to the electrical section here, let me know.
