If this is your daily driver, I get the question. If this is your "hobby car" then is it worth the risk of anything electrical going wrong? Risk/reward it is up to you.

just a suggestion, but if you do decide to drive without it, download an app for your phone that gives you a speed readout. It will likely be differential gps speed but it's better than nothing.

When i swapped out the 4+3 for the T56 i drove mine without the cluster for a test drive. The ecm didn't deal with keeping the idle speed up when rolling up to a stop sign. It died at most stops. I don' t know if automatic cars have the same issue or not, just offering what i observed. Reconnected the cluster, issue went away.
