Topkick/Kodiak gauge cluster swap

[RedneckWithPaychecks]

After seeing that there is at least some interest in doing this swap, I'll make this thread.

Info I have: It exists. The topkick interior is similar, if not the same, as a GMT400. Here is what I was going to post:

Hey all, I've got a 1994 GMC Sierra K1500 that I have a lot of ideas for factory/minimum effort swap in stuff. I don't have the cluster, I do have the effort and $$$ to do it. Will it be a direct swap in? Will I have to swap the whole dash? Thanks all.

Sub'd
Mine is newer, but I think this is a really cool idea.

Thank you, 618 Syndicate and RedneckWithPaychecks! Interested in seeing how it turns out. I don't get to treasure yards as often as I once did, so it'll probably be awhile before I attempt this myself.

So by the looks of it; It may require some work.

Here is the connecter for a 1990 GMC Sierra Moonie gauge cluster (a 1994 connector is different)

Here is the connecter for a Topkick/Kodiak. I doubt someone makes an adapter.

Could you re-pin leaving out the extra stuff off the Topkick?

Ah, I thought they looked similar but wasn't convinced they were the same. Like 618 Syndicate said though, I'm intrigued to see if you could just repin the TopKick harness. Are the pins the same? What warning lights does the TopKick cluster have?

When I'm more awake, I'll find some wiring diagrams and whatnot.

Why wait?

I have a good diagram of a 1989 GMC Sierra gauge cluster wiring harness. I don't have one for a Topkick, I am deterimined to give y'all a wiring harness diagram sheet thing so I'm not giving up. Yet.
