      Anyway to hook up factory gauges from a different car?

      I'm looking to try and retrofit a cluster out of a c6 into my gbody. Is there anyway? Could I buy c6 senders?

      it's probably controlled by the ECM, so while it might be possible it won't be easy.

      one of the best factory appearing gauge swaps i've ever seen done online was a cluster out of a '90's Buick LeSabre into an 86 or 87 Grand National. it was practically a bolt in with a little modifying of the dash bezel, and it was wired win with an adapter harness mean for a GNX gauge cluster and a home brewed VSS for the electronic speedo.
