Default Where can I find a whole new plug in dashboard gauge cluster of for a 96 mustang gt?

Yea long story short my gauges are jacked, the fuel gauge doesnt move and when I;m driving I cant go over 50, I mean I was flying but the cluster stops at 50 so does anyone know where I can find a whole new cluster that plugs in not just the faces cause it has to be recalibrated cause the rpms are off and so is everything else and I dont wanna get ripped from the dealer, thanks!!!!

Thanks, but which one is the right one, i need one to plug in and I found one thats the whole thing it even had the mileage meter is that the right one and can I somehow take that part out so my mileage reads cause I'm only at 72,500 and that one is the whole cluster and its at 100,000 but in good shape. SO when it says This is the full cluster not just the gauges, that means its the right one correct????? Thanks

You can try Dallas Mustang. They have just about everything for your mustang. Also, you may just have a bad connection on the Speedo gauge cluster. I don't know if you checked that yet.

this how-to is for white face gauges, you need to remove the needles to do. it tells you how to put them back and has some tips and tricks. im sure you didnt document your needle positions..... which makes it alot harder, but if i remember right they tell you how to fix. maybe you can try to remember where they were and get them close until you get the new pod?

Your other option would be something like this....




They aren't listing the mechanical speedo years on there website but I believe they do make on for them. You would need to call and find out for sure.
