Just did this job. The instructions here were very useful. I spent more time getting the cluster back in than anything else-the blue harness connector was very difficult for me-using a mirror and working from the left side helped enormously.
I'd also recommend liberal use of something like blue painter's tape to protect the face of the cluster as well as the hood-especially the bottom, where the cluster slides out. The plastic scratches amazingly easily.
The counts at RealOEM are reliable-you need 3 of the big lamps (P/N 07119905358), which pull out of their green bases. These are general gauge lighting.
-You need 2 of the beige base lamps (P/N 62111391260), odometer and SI display.
-RealOEM is mum, though, on the subject of the black base lamps (P/N 62131383311), which are used for individual alerts, but my USA cluster, '98 Sport, manual transmission, needs 16. Naturally, they're one of the pricier ones! A great place to use your CCA discount.
Thanks much for help on this.
