Do you mean the pre 90 dash? The 90-93 are the same, except for the color of the digits and the 94-96 are the same.

Here's one out of my 85. It wasn't dark but the lights are on. Hope this helps.

Click the link for my dash. It looks the same, day or night. It just dims a little in the dark.

I had some pics of my dash at night but can't locate them. Any way here is a pic of a '84. The only year with this dash. It was changed in '85, to what Scorp's looks like. Notice the differance in tachs and the larger numbers on the guages

About 3900 I'd venture...

Also, did someone say that that dash was in '84 only?

I guess I've confused the years, what was the first year that they put in the curving dash that swooped from the guage cluster down to the center console?
