Default Instrument cluster swap.

Im wondering if all clusters from 95-97 will work in my 97 Volvo 850. I found one locally from a 95 T5 with a Turbo gauge and wondering if the electrical connections will all work ..

Sounds as if your car is non turbo?

While I cannot see there being a problem with the cluster I do wonder whether or not all of the connectors/plugs will be the same.

Do you have any idea of what the back of your cluster looks like?

Have you taken a good look at your gauge?

I believe only 96-97 clusters will work.
The 1995 has a different ABS system. There will be a problem with the speedo and odometer from what I have heard I have never tried it myself.

I agree with Tech. I have also heard the 95 clusters are somewhat unique.
