You will need the sub-harness. It is the three plug harness that plugs into the back of the actual gauge cluster. On the other end it becomes two plugs, and that just plugs into the existing harness behind the dash.

I just did a digital to analog cluster AND dash swap last weekend. I hate the digital cluster and it was broken anyway.

Hope that helps.

ok thanx. when your dash was out did it make a rev limiter sort of thing? cus mine does but im pretty sure its because it puts it in "safe mod" because the speed sensor circuit is bad it says judging by the codes from the ecu

The dash or the gauge cluster? I never had any problem but I didn't drive the car without the gauge cluster installed. The CPU could very well see that the speed or tach circuit is not complete and thus flip to safe mode.
