Gauge Cluster Truth?? or false?

Kay well theres alot of differen opinions on this, and i wanna clear it up because i want to buy one and i dont want it not to work hah

Are all Gauge Clusters... 120mph, 140mph, 180 mph all interchangable???? Can canadian Clusters be used on a an american cobalt??


I have an 08 Sport w/ 140mph cluster, i want the Canadian SS version cluster

The SS/SC and SS/TC are 160 MPH.

Anyways, are you planning on moving to Canada?

Thats for the SS with the 2.4L LE5 (And probably some of the Sport appearance package Cobalts) and all Pontiac G5's.

I swapped an 07 SS/SC cluster into my 07 SS/NA, straight swap, no reconfiguring needed. Stick to the same years to prevent anything from not working and you'll be fine.
