cymmgarcia Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Hi All, I just purchased a Silverado SS Cluster to replace my dead stock cluster. Everything works great, except the backlighting seems weird to me. It could be me, since I'm used to the plane Black overlay and not the White. This is especially true at dawn, when the SS Cluster is barely legible compared to the Stock Cluster. Anyways, the only way to settle my phsycotic visual issues is by seeing night time and dawn/dusk pics of your clusters, so please post away... Thanks in advance to all volunteers!

shockx5 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Here's a night shot for you. Took this on the way home about an hr ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolBlueSS Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 It is hard to see at dawn/dusk as the numbers are a gray color, So, they appear to be silver when backlit when there is still a little light outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman31 Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Here you go, it's an old pic(SS has 39k on her now) but pretty much shows what the cluster looks like at night....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1SSS Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Is it me or do the mph #'s look different? One looks italicized (Fireman's) while the other looks bold (shock's)? My trucks speedo looks like shock's, is this a rwd/awd thing? Maybe Im losing it upstairs......

F1SSS Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Its just a different little touch to the truck I like. Never new there were 2 different speedos for the trucks. maybe an ISS speedo would look nice.

F1SSS Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Ya it must be a rwd/06 thing, now we need a pic of a rwd 05 speedo to see if it matches... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Tried to google it looks like the change was in 06. thats how the Intimidator SS came. 05 was still AWD. looks like ours.. maybe some one with an 05 will chime in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
