Let's do a 2003 Escalade Cluster Swap

These Escalade clusters have always been one of the sexiest gauges to me when i first saw them back in the day.

I ordered this one from Digital-Dash-Solutions aka Fix My Gauges

This is the "Black Platinum with Blue Needles and Blue LED backlighting" version.

Their staff is friendly as heck. Sent them my VIN, Mileage, Hours and they programmed that into the new/refurbished one. It shipped immediately and arrived within 3 days.
Couldn't have been any easier.

Check it out. installed

and lit up!

Looking at their site it's seriously expensive. Did you pay the $550 for it or was it cheaper?

This is an expensive hobby. That's about the going rate for that gauge cluster.

 

[Onebad1983]

Nice! I'd love to have that body, but with modern underpinnings and interior.

Be awesome to have that lowered

Made a quick video this weekend in the Denali just running to the corner store and back.

Check it out (shot in 4k)

Can I get a link to this please? It's not showing up

Direct link...you should be able to click it, it works.

 

[Onebad1983]

Not working. I'm on school computer. Youtube videos are blocked and I can't watch them. Have to download them

 

[SirReal63]

That would explain it.

The new c-bar style lights, I was looking at those same ones. My cousin has the same style on his Silverado and they look amazing. And they would match your u-bar headlights nicely.
For now you can candy the amber on your stocks. Looks 100x better.

I have the C-bar lights on my 'Hoe and I love em. Would definitely go good with the U-bar headlights

 

[Fosscore]

Man I love that video.

We need Beer Run 2 with the updated paint work.

Maybe a Rivi run as well?

[Onebad1983]

Nope, other then aggravation, nothing new.

Is aggravation ever new when working on vehicles?

 

[Onebad1983]

NP. No I searched eBay first and found squat, then remembered using dailylister and it found it for me on eBay. Perhaps the key words the poster typed was not what you or I were typing in our search, even though we knew what we wanted. Kind of like the specific grill retainer clip someone was asking about in another thread. The webz too smart for it's own good sometimes. lol

Did you ever think about using that website to try to find those park lights again?

He's already got them so why would he do that? LOL I vote you search and let us know what you find
