Your gonna have to check your local junkyard and get it that or try Ebay. if you get it from the junkyard, make sure to grab the console too so everything just hooks rite up

digital speedometer read out

Sounds good, once i find the cluster i'll let you know.

1.)Do i need to get another wiring harness? I'm not to positive how the cluster is actually hooked up.

2.)If my speedometer doesn't work now is that because the cluster gauge is broken or the wiring is messed up?

you can check the wiring but i doubt its that. Check the fuses and then take the cluster out and see if the wires. If everything is good, then your cluster is bad and will need to be replaced.

The digital cluster is the same as the one now but has only the tachometer(RPM Meter) and the HUD tells you how fast your going. The wiring is the same except for the one new wire that attaches from the HUD to the cluster. The HUD i have has the wire connected to it so all you need to do is attach it to the cluster.

Hope that makes sense and helps you out lemme kno if you need any more help.

(AIM is best way to reach me)

If you really wanna get crazy, get the digital climate control from a s13. They only came off of the cars in japan, but they are pimp. I am working on mine right now, but most of the ones you find people are selling are missing all the sensors, except for the main wiring harness for the unit. I will post up a list of all the sensors that are required that are mostly from maximas and 300zx's.

Not usually....most of the time they just come with the gauge and the wiring sub-harness.....I think tho, that the sensors are only needed if you want to use the auto thermostat function.
