Im having trouble with installing USDM 97-98 gauges in my 95 240sx. I have the wiring harness from a 97 and the gauges from a 97 but dont know which wire goes to which corresponding one. I tried color matching and came up with extra wires. When I did that, everything seemed to work except for the gas meter and the speedometer. Does anyone know how to do this or maybe have a diagram of how to do it? I've searched all the forums and cant find an answer. Thanks in advance.

I bought JDM 97-98 gauges and was surprised that the harness isn't the same. After thinking for a month or so I decided to make a hybrid cluster out of both mine and the new one. I took them both apart and found that the Temp gas and speedometer swap directly over. For the tach, I ground down the left side of the circuit board a hair and then just made space in the cluster with a dremel tool. There is a post in the top right of the tach that is in the right place and either clock can be used. To make the electrical connection, I just wired the tachometers mounting screw points to the points on the back of the cluster.
