Instrument cluster in 90's Hilux

Hi all,

Ive got a 92 dual cab Hilux and it has the instrument cluster with the tacho, speedo, temp and fuel guage.

If I find a instrument clister with the oil pressure and voltmeter, will it bolt up and work? I was about to fit a aftermarket oil pressure guage but thought original would be much better.

you'll need to change the sensor for the oil gauge from a simple On/Off idiot light switch to the varying resistance sensor.

Get the dash from a surf 2.4TD, swap over your speedo (to keep your kms authentic) and grab the oil pressure sender while your in the wreckers.

So the wiring will be in the cluster loom? I'll need to find a petrol one as I have the petrol engine :lol:
