Cavalier Interior Questions - Need YOUR Help!
Saturday, April 17, 2010 8:41 PM
Let me start out by saying I have had a major setback on the project that I did not expect. I have recently had my whole interior two toned and sprayed at a professional facility since I have had not had a whole lot of free "project" time.

The setback is during this project my lower dash assembly was given to an old friend to assist in finishing it, however as I stated he is no longer a friend of mine and the piece disappeared.

I have a 00+ Double Din Bezel
95-99 Cluster (will I need this to be updated with the 00+ lower dash? If so will everything work with my 95 Cavalier? I know the odometer switched to digital along the way?)
95-99 Lower Dash Assembly (Which was supposed to be a 00+) given to the paint shop by my local junker. This was in an attempt to help me out however it is now a major screw up.
95-99 Rest of interior

I am attempting to locate a lower dash/top pad assembly from another 00+ however before I do this will I run into any other problems besides the bezel not lining up like I currently have? Will the door panels fit all year models? I am unsure of the year door panels I have, but I can post pictures of everything I have if it will eliminate this from happening next time around.

any help you can be with this issue is appreciated!

After Reading the FAQ I have one question answered, that I cannot swap to a 00+ Cluster. However, if I wanted to swap to a 00+ cluster and only utilize blinkers, sensors, etc would it work? If I would not need odometer, speedometer, tach, etc would the other functioning lights work?

I have a 00+ bezel and 95-99 Lower dash Core and they do not match up.

If I get a 00+ Lower Dash Core to match the bezel will I have any problems with door panels, a-pillars, etc?

I know if I get the 00+ Lower Dash Core I need to change the Cluster because the '95 Cluster will not mount correctly I read.

If I get a 00+ Cluster and do not plan on using the Odometer, Tach/Speedometer etc will the function lights still work (Blinkers, Hazards, Sensors, Etc)?

Sorry about the jibberish in the first post not having the best day, was planning on throwing the interior back together today and ran into the lower dash problem.

the cluster will not plug up. the 00-05 cluster get all their info from the BCMs. which your cav doesnt have. the door panels like i said are all the same., so yes the 00+ will fit. you can do what i did with my sunfire dash to make the cavalier cluster fit. just trim small portions. or even cut off the little legs off of your cluster and move them to where they line up with the holes for the 00+ clusters.

Well it looks like today will be a better day. Thanks for that info azncav! I'll work on getting a 00+ lower dash and top dash pad and the rest should all fit together.

The top dash pad is the same 95-05

I think bigfoot is blurry,
that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra
scary to me. There's a large, out-of-focus monster, roaming the countryside.
