My 1990 k5 circuit on the rear of my cluster is pretty damaged so none of my dash/gauge lights work anymore. I have all the gauges i want or need so it does have to come with gauges.

Wanted Looking for electric speedo dash cluster in good shape

I believe that I understand that you only need the printed circuit for the cluster.
I have 2 complete, working 1990 clusters that I have personally tested. But I don't have just the circuit.

I need the plastic housing and the circuit on the back to be functioning and well preserved. None of my dash lights work because the circuit is all torn and worn out
If you are willing to sell pm me. I need a new membrane and may aswell get the plastic housing with it all intact since its held on a weird way. I just dont need any gauges as i have mine, plus another functioning cluster, but the one i grabbed wasnt electric speedo. It did happen to have some good gauges in it though. I would like all the twist in light holders though, if not ill try and find some new.. Maybe lmc has them

I will try to get some pictures for you in the next few days. I hope that is not too slow for you.
As far as the bulb holders, the electric speedo clusters use a bulb holder that has the bulb permanently attached. I think that it may be possible to separate the bulb, but I found a new socket from NAPA which let me install LEDS. I will try to find the number. The earlier ones are a different size, and won't interchange.
If you were to stay incandescent, it's easy to just buy the bulb with the integrated socket. I wouldn't go that route after seeing the difference , but that's my preference.
But don't go too cheap with the LEDS, I got some from ebay first and the durability was not there.
If you haven't already, look at the thread in the garage about "K5 dash lights ".

Thanks, i appreciate the info! And no thats plenty of time. My dash is functioning.. Just dark and has been for about a year, just figured its time to find a dash and get the lights back, id love to go LED so any Part# you may have still would be awesome. Redoing my exhaust is soaking up most my funds right now but the electric speedos arent so easy to come by so i should put the feelers out and find one.
