This is for sale right now and I'm kind of thinking...   From what I know the wiring is quite different than the Canadian ones but hmmm.....

The wiring would likely be different however if you get ahold of both the U.S and Canadian schematics you should be able to determine what connectors need to be changed to match your Canadian harness. I had to do this with the U.S rally gauge cluster I put into my Laurentian.

Did you see the back of that thing? It looks totally different than my US optional gauge cluster. I wonder what all the black stuff is for?

..... I don't think you can have the cruise speedo with the rally guage speedo that I ever seen, so it's either this one or the other.





I believe it says that in the 66 accessory book too, choose between the two.

It seems to have a 65 knob on it so i agree that its a 65.  I agree too that without the underhood stuff its just a wall hanging so its way too much trouble i think.

So a 66 cruise also does a speedwarning buzzer?

I know that for 67 the cruise went in to the signal lever, so the 67 is just a speedwarning only, correct?
