Could I ask you why you want to replace it? Is the odometer not working or one of the gauges not working?

Odometer not working all else is fine. I don't want to mess with opening and changing the gear.

A '95 won't work in a '97; they receive their speedometer signal differently.

96/97 clusters are interchangeable, but really changing the odometer gear is easy.

That's why I asked.. you should just do the change .. take a few hours to do it slowly and you should not have an issue.

Look in the repair database and you will see a good write up on it.

Problem with replacing it with and older one is that the gear might go on that one too anyway.
