There shouldn't be any problem with the cluster, but I think maybe while doing the swap with the cluster you messed up the lighting switch. My guess is to replace the headlight switch to fix the problem. Also check the fues for the DLR's in the fuse block in the car. Let me know how that goes, but it is very common problem I've seen over the years.

95 cluster will only work in an 95. you need to get on from a 96 - 98.

Not quite true, and I'm a little unsure why, but I ran a 98 cluster in my 95 for over a year, and it worked flawlessly.
However, I'm surprized that the 95 is allowing the car to run, because the 95's did not have the theft system that the 96+ has involving the cluster.

I actually think there is something in the cluster or the car that sets itself when it first gets power, because one of the times I swapped a cluster, I remember having a problem with the highs and another light, and disconnecting it and reconnecting it fixed it. I believe the high beams have to be off when the cluster first gets power, or it will think it's reversed or something. I never really screwed around with it to figure out why it happened, but once I unplugged it and replugged it in, I never had another problem with it.
