DigiDash outright Purchase (no core)
What is the going rate to purchase a functional (tach & speedo working at bare minimum) 1987 Digi-Dash? What do they go for from salvage yards? Who sells them (with no core)? I'm looking to get a spare so that I can use it while I send my original one to someone to get a few things fixed on it (light sensor, for example). I found one guy with one from an '87 for $275. Is this reasonable or a ripoff? Thanks, ~Juliet

Eegads - Contemp. Corv wants $800 to purchase one outright! $200 with a core. I think I might just ****** this other one up for $275 quick! :D ~Juliet

A lot. And juliet I know how you are..... ;)....... make sure it is an 87 or 88 unit WITH cruise control. 87 and 88 are the only two years that the dash was the same.

Uh - where does cruise show up? I've never seen any cruise indicator on mine? :confused: Is that somethine else broken on mine? :eek: ~Juliet
So you would just want to make sure the dash came out of a 87/88 cruise equipped car. :)

The cruise control logic circuits are part of the dash. :)

Re: DigiDash outright Purchase (Juliet)
Say you don't know for sure which car a particular dash came from? How would one tell if the paper stickers on the top of the unit are gone?
