what year is the r/t cluster from? the gauges will all read fine. depending on the year, when you do the swap you might just have some of the bulbs on the cluster lit up. its nothing that cant be fixed by just removing the bulb so you dont see the light though hahaha but yeah mph, rpm, gas, engine temp, and most/all warning lights that work with your model will all work fine. its a straight forward drop in swap with the new cluster. no splicing/switching wires or anything is needed. you wont have the right mileage though.

my dealer around me is gay and wouldnt do it unless i bought a new blank cluster from them. and which is 2-300$ i think maybe more, then a crazy charge for the flash and they have to keep your car, for 2-3 weeks even more i think they said.. since it cant move while they get the mileage from the computer and send all the info and the new cluster out to get flashed. they cant do it in house...
