These are not the gauges you are looking for...

I guess the force is not strong enough for you to give them to me.

I sold one on ebay about three years ago for $450 with the senders, and it wasn't even refinished. I was very surprised it went for that much, sold another one later in the year and it went for $275. Still nice to find one and worth much more than you paid for it I'm sure.

Doesn't everyone have one of those?

I had one, sold it. It was more cool back in the 80's, Now I just prefer the white faced stock gauges. They do get pretty good money still though.

Did you get the 10 bar oil pressure sender with it?
If not you may want to go back and get it. ;-)

it was in a 1980 245dl, the oil pressure guage was hooked up via a 3bar sender, i will go back and double check but i am almost positive it was 3bar.

either way i am going to clean it up and probably sell it, i need some buffer money.

There was a 242 with that cluster for sale in Monterey for $500. I should have bought the car, swapped clusters and sold the car for $500.

So you value your testicles at roughly $250 dollars per nut?

I bought the same cluster recently on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370017163871). It's very nice! But it needs some modification to fit in a 93 dash :-P...

If someone wants this same cluster (or for other 240 parts), ask to this guy in Ontario: http://london.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-parts-accessories-Volvo-240-GT-parts-W0QQAdIdZ28557019

Ciao :-D

ahhh but i am going to call you out on making the faces for those yourself! hahahhaha

takes two seconds to cut the wires, what if somebody wants to install in a car without the proper connectors or something? it is just better to have all wires extended long enough so that installation is stress free.

you wouldn't get a cd player at the junkyard without the harness would you?

Harnesses are essentially standardized on head units.

The most I have ever had to do was change the remote wire and antenna power wire on a harness when I switched brands.

BUUUUUUUUUUUT it only takes two seconds to cut and is the same price?! :???: i always take as many associated parts that would come with whatever i am pulling just IN CASE, what if i wanted to put it in my 740? then i have the wiring already exposed and i can just go.

Obviously some of you don't know that when you go to pull off the connectors. 9 times out of 10 on an R sport cluster you break the flimsy circuit board. So, Matt did the correct thing by cutting the wires and preserving the circuit board. If you aren't careful installing the connectors you'll break the board as well. On Dave Shannons web page he tells how he put male pins on the wires so he could install the R sport cluster into the newer wire connectors. He also made an adapter plate that he mounted the cluster on which fit it into the 81-newer dash.
