You don't seem to know what to pay for ALL the items you have recently bought for your car. Just out of curiousity, why would you want to purchase this cluster. For the bling factor? If yours works fine there is no reason to replace it.

This cluster was sold for $500 brand new just a couple years ago. Anyone paying more than that is wasting their money. On average this cluster sells for $800-$900 used and sometimes more if you can find one brand new.

To each there own though.

Edit: if you are going to drop that much cash on a cluster, why not look for a UKDM which would at least still read mph?

I agree, it looks cool, but I'd be god damned to pay that much for it! If it was atelast in MPH, I'd be more inclined.

Doostur, what do you do for the USMC? Whats your rank?

Quite a few of these clusters have popped up lately. Current bid of $620 isn't a bad price considering what some have sold for. It's tempting.

What do you have, a TS? Make sure to go to school while you're in, take full advantage of the time you have off.

FFS, he said FONT not FRONT...

Font \Font\, n. [F. fonte, fr. fondre to melt or cast. See
Found to cast, and cf. Fount a font.] (Print.)
A complete assortment of printing type of one size, including
a due proportion of all the letters in the alphabet, large
and small, points, accents, and whatever else is necessary
for printing with that variety of types; a fount.
[1913 Webster]

What's the attraction to this cluster that makes it worth this much money? It's an instrument cluster..

Well, to begin with, there are limited quantities. Therefore, the demand from people who desire "rare" items drives up the cost of an already relatively expensive item.

Next, it has an extended tachometer and redline, for those that require it, plus a unique appearance.

Finally, I recall that the instruments (the tachometer in particular) are somehow made more accurate than their OEM counterparts.
