Well I believe Eckler's, Mid-America, TaberTouch.com and Corvette Central all repair them. I remember seeing one of them advertising a half price sell a couple of weeks back, but I can't recall which one it was. Be sure to check around for the best price and warranty.

There are several other places too.

I suspect that all three of them send them out to a shop though and don't do the actual repair. I may be wrong about that though.

I've dissassembled mine myself... If you know what's broken, like a bad LCD pane for example, it may be worthwhile to repair yourself if you can find the parts.

He was a complete arrogant jerk to me on the phone.

I was extremely happy with his attitude and service. They turned it around quickly and at the price they advertised (about 200 if I remember right). I didn't get any attitude from him at all, he seemed very courteous. Maybe you cought him at a bad time??? :confused:

Hi;

I have Gordon Killebrew's 1984-1989 Corvette Digital Cluster repair manual. I got it in case I needed it to keep my Bronze 84 alive and well -- but haven't used it.

$29.95--1984-89 Digital Cluster Troubleshooting Book. Diagnose and fix cluster problems yourself! It is a complete Step-By-Step Operational and Troubleshooting Guide. Includes instructions on cluster removable from dash, location of all grounds affecting the cluster, cluster disassemble and repair, and much more information.

For more information, go to Gordon's website:
http://www.gordonkillebrew.com/pages/800740/index.htm

He may offer cluster repair services as well.

Good luck.
:thumbs:
