Default HUD Suggestions

I had a cluster for a 2003 Anniversary Corvette and sold it to someone that has a 2001 c5 convertible and the HUD and now he says that since he installed the cluster his HUD will not work.

The cluster has seven wires going to the switch on the left side of the dash while his ( I am told) has eleven.

Any suggestions on how to make his HUD work?

Your AE had HUD right? That makes no sense to me HUD for HUD they are a swap, or I am missing something

He needs the 11 pin wiring harness to hook it up correctly.

He is saying my cluster had seven wires, and his (old cluster) had eleven. So what is needed to make it work?

If the guy can't figure that out...I'd be surprised he can install the cluster at all...
