Instrument cluster swapout help

[JudgeM]

I would like orange.

Yes, those 2 wires are in a white connector, they seem to be going up to that immobilizer light (the one near the defrost windshield vent) . Is there anyway I can check this is the ambient temp sensor, if not where is ambient temp sensor normally found ?

If I dont have the ambient temp sensor, could I buy one (from you) and wire it in to work with this meter ?

Oh and any word on if I can easily change units in my meter ?

thanks.

Those wires are definitely not the ambient temp sensor. It is located on a plastic bracket below the radiator. If you look though the lower grill you will see it, if it is present. If it is present, you could add two wires to the cluster and grab the connection at the AC ECU (which is under the center of the dash). If your car doesn't have one, it would be easy enough to add it. I believe I do have a spare one on hand and I also have the pins for the cluster connector.

Orange would be no problem. Are you looking for about the same color as your analog cluster had?

I am 90% sure that the unit supports going back and forth between KM and Miles. Once you power it up, you hold the odo trip reset switch for more than one second with the tail light switch off to switch display units.
