Dash wiring

[zz_camaro_zz]

I'm putting an 88 z28 dash in my 84 berlinetta so that i have real gauges instead of the digital ones. can anybody tell me if i can get the old wiring harness to work or am i going to have to hunt down a harness from an 88 to get my gauges to work?

my friend did that to his 85 and took the new dash out of 89. he just took the harness out of the 89 to save money and time, so that would be my best bet

Unfortunatly the harness for the berlinettas are totally different from the standard analog clusters ..they wont work you would have to replace the entire harness out of the analog gauge car also the wireing for the turn signals is seperate from the normal parts of an analog harness
the best way if you are wanting regular guages would be to install aftermarket ones with there own wireing ..
