Does the standard fit AU dash cluster have the lights in it telling you what gear you are in? or is it only in the higher end clusters?

So how do i go about getting it into my car? is it something that can be a mod, or is it having to swap in the correct cluster?

i've swapped a tickford cluster into my auIII wagon and it has the gear display between the DTE and the odometer. makes a difference as i had the same problem as you with the lights around the gear shift being really dim

Also ... there are a few mods needed to get the Series 2/3 clusters working properly in the Series 1's (which i think you have ... i can't remember now).

It can be done ... just some re-wiring of pin-outs on the cluster need to be done (just for some of the dash lights to work properly ... and the oil-pressure gauge to work as well from memory).

An XR2 cluster is a straight swap for a standard series 2 one?
