can you put a 2004 tb SS gauge cluster into a 2004 envoy?
i doubted it was possible...has anyone tried this or seen it done?

SS cluster(with LED lights and blue needles) in my Trailblazer
ConeKilrAutoX said:that is awesome. If my envoy didnt have DIC will it still work?
Me007gold said:Indeed it will, jetttstream has a how to, on how to set up a box to control the DIC, or you could add a steering wheel with buttons and clock spring, do a small amount of wiring and it will just like it came from the factory.

06 was the first year for the SS
ConeKilrAutoX said:So it is not possible to put an SS dic into an 04 envoy then
Short Bus said:IDK for sure, but IIRC the clusters changed in 06 and you need the same year (or close IDK, I'm don't know the cutoff years) that your truck came with. I'm sure someone here will be more help though.

Me007gold said:Year does not matter, Ive had a 04 Rainier Cluster in my truck, before I put the SS cluster in and everything worked correctly. The only issue you may have is "program cluster' but it will no effect the way the cluster works.

ConeKilrAutoX said:nice....was there any extra wiring needed? or did you simply plug the new one in?

Blckshdw said:There's a write up in the articles section, may give you some good info
Edit: Nevermind, I thought this one had the info on tapping the wires under the dash for the steering wheel controls. You'll have to add some wires that go into the cluster harness. There's 4 wires (one for each DIC control button) If you don't go with a DIC steering wheel and make your own control box (this is the route I took) you just have to connect those 4 pins to ground, through a momentary button, and that's it.

ConeKilrAutoX said:how would I go about doing the mileage correction?
Me007gold said:You have to find some one who can fix it. You need to find an Odometer shop, Companys like USspeedo and Florida Speedometer can also do it, but they are a bit more expensive, or you can find some one in your area, who wil do it for much less. I got lucky, I found a guy on craigslist who did mine for $75.00.
Blckshdw said:To get some pre-wired pins that you'll need to add to your cluster harness, you can buy a radio harness for our trucks off Ebay (the radio and cluster plugs are the same). Then just extend the wires to wherever you plan to mount your control box.

DJones said:What you could do instead of reprogramming the cluster is swapping the internals. The outside would have the look you want with the inside known to the truck.
ConeKilrAutoX said:Like this cluster gauge face?
DJones said:Yes. You didn't have a caption for that photo so I didn't know what you were planning.
CavScout1836 said:Just to avoid any more confusion, all GMT360 clusters are interchangeable. You have to take it to a dealership ... to have it reprogrammed.
I currently have a 03 Non-DIC Envoy with a 04 Rainer cluster with DIC (that i picked up on eBay for 30 bucks shipped) but no buttons to control them.
DJones said:That's what my dealer said too, but I haven't tried it yet. However, they won't do the programming.
That's a good price. I don't think I'll be that lucky.
Me007gold said:Keep an eye on tbssowners.com I got mine there for about $100
