Default Z06 Instrument cluster swap

I have a 99 hard top and have access to a complete 2002 Z06 instrument cluster...Will it be a direct bolt in or is there a difference between the standard 99 C5 and a 2002 Z06

thanks!

From what I have been told no difference. I am about to install a Z06 cluster into my 98 coupe.

I´ve put a Z06 cluster into a 98 coupe and had to rewire the airbag indicator bulb, as after flashing 7 times it lit up constantly during driving. Maybe the reason is, that it is a 300 speedo.

Having installed many sets of gauge bezels I can say that these instructions will do the trick. http://www.vetteessentials.com/instr...zel_howto.html

Figure on about 2 hours taking your time. While your in there you may as well do the bezels for another $85 or so. I do have a question. The Z06 IP has the Z06 logo. Is that the look your after? I post a photo but photobucket seems to be done tight now.
