So finally got to my brother in law's house where the gauges are and his 16 year old has taken them apart. All of them ..

If it is anything like me taking things apart when I was young, they are toast!

Yeah, they're probably good for parts, but not much else. Got one more place to look but I'm not holding out much hope.

Found a possible donor here but what do I look for in the gauges to make sure they are correct? His is a 2003 but are there different clusters?
Let me know if you find something! Thank you.

There are different clusters but any of the 03-06 (technically 07 classic) will work.

Found a good video on the fix and they had the part number for the only "authorized" GM steppers. $25 for the kit on Amazon.
Easy job.

Good deal!

Here is the site I found with good info, instructions and parts links for the gauge issues. Maybe this can help someone else.
