I don't know about all the other stuff, but is the speedometer the same? If not I don't think it will work. Also, if you have idiot lights on your old guages then I know it uses different sensors, so the guages will not work properly. If you do have guages rather than lights make sure your oil guage is the same because different guages also use different sensors. I don't know if you will get a tach signal to your guages if you don't have a tach currently. I thought there were guage clusters with a tach on some of the N/A cars. I do know the boost guage won't work!!!! lol

Good luck though, and if it doesn't work I'll but them since my top leaked for a while and messed up some of my guages a bit. It also messed up the factory radio and CD player (yes, there was a CD player from the factory in '90) and the annoying noise maker that lets you know the lights are on. I removed the last, and put a JVC CD player in place of the factory CD player after unplugging the radio. Widening the hole for it was a real pain though. It also messed up my intemittent wiper switch too, so if anyone has a leaky top fix it right away.
