Bought mine from Casper but I know member cfodor had some and also had guages for 180.

Bradrulz · 07-13-2012, 09:45 PM

Thanks for the great install write up. Installed this afternoon in 20 minutes including taking my time with the lighter plug removal. Managed to not break any tabs.

Buck Heard · 07-14-2012, 08:49 AM

Just installed mine this morning. Thanks GMPARTSHOUSE!

CamaroLS · 07-29-2012, 07:45 AM

This is my next mod!! Thanks for the info.

ChapelSS · 08-17-2012, 10:46 AM

Just installed mine. 30 minutes. Would have been quicker if I didn't have to find the zip ties that came with the GM kit. Been floating around the shelves in my garage for monthes waiting for me to do the install. Now to call the dealership to cancel the appt. I made to install the gauge pack. Thanks for the info and pointers; gave me the courage to tear into the project myself.

Quickstir · 09-22-2012, 01:35 PM

hopefully someone can help me out. i finished connecting everything checked tc and lighter both working but the gauges aren't reading anything. Did the gauges immediately start up for you guys?

Quickstir · 09-22-2012, 02:03 PM

To add to the previous my radio and AC controls have no power but the music is still coming out of the stereo????

Don't think there's any difference for the 2013's

ImperialSScamaro · 11-28-2012, 07:37 PM

Several GM dealer ships told me all summer long that you can't buy or install them for 2012 but I believe now it was only because none knew how in my area. So yeah most likely they are the same for 2013.

midnightwarrior · 11-28-2012, 10:17 PM

Any update for the cluster not working?

chevyfan#1 · 11-29-2012, 07:35 AM

Nice job it looks great!

malave7567 · 11-29-2012, 08:24 AM

according to patrickt from GMPartsHouse, concerning using the gauge pack on the 2013,

Quote:

"GM did some changes to the electrical system which it turns makes the guage packs not work. We are working on a kit but are still quite a way away from completion."

I asked because I want to get the set from them since it's the best price. I suppose if you went through GM directly and ordered the 2013 set, it would probably be fine.

a.morblu · 11-29-2012, 01:09 PM

Can't wait to get mine this winter. Nice write up.

midnightwarrior · 11-29-2012, 11:20 PM

Is there a dedicated fuse for the cluster pack? 2010 SS.

D-RockSS12 · 12-15-2012, 08:46 PM

I just installed mine. One thing I'd like to note is when I transferred the traction control button over I had lost the little rubber part that fits over the TC circuit board. It must have flown out when taking it out of the old console. That part is crucial to the button working apparently and it took me forever to find it and get it to work.

Sapper12b · 12-15-2012, 08:57 PM

This is something I would be interested in my 2013, hopefully an update comes out so I can order mine.

Angrybird 12 · 12-21-2012, 11:59 AM

Getting ready to do this myself, this thread will be very helpful.

Anyone knows the part number for the harness adaptor? I want to ask my local dealer if they have it in stock.

Thanks

midnightwarrior · 12-21-2012, 01:21 PM

Does anyone have any clues as to why the cluster won't work? I don't have much time to take apart the console to make sure the connection is good but it looks like that is the route I'm gonna have to go.

christianmotox · 12-21-2012, 02:28 PM

Did you just installed the cluster? or was it factory installed?.

sorry if you already explained you're situation, but i didn't found any info on you're issue on this thread.

midnightwarrior · 12-21-2012, 06:20 PM

Sorry I should have given more details. As far as I know it was factory installed . Previous owner was a lady with a little girl (found Barbie shoes under the seats on my first detail). Cluster never worked from day one.

You might want to check the connections, it literally takes like 45 seconds to pop the gauges out, maybe something got disconnected, or it wasn't factory installed and they never installed the adaptor harness.

Thanks for the write up! Just used it to install one of my christmas gifts

The cigarette lighter help was much appreciated.
