I remember back in college when they first came out with those digital dash cars. Both of my neighbors went out and bought new 1989 T/A's. One got the 5 speed 305 car and the other got the Auto 350. I cna't remember which one had the digital dash or if both of them did.

I used to want one of those in the worst way back in the day. I wanted the 350 in Flame Red. Good luck with it!

My first 87 GTA parts car had a digital dash. Nothing special. Tach is goofy and the oil/fuel/water meters are a pain to comprehend at a glance.

I forgot I have it, the interior harness and most of the body harness still in my attic. heh.

Teds89IROC 03-26-2008 09:51 PM

cool! My aunt had an early 90's jimmy with a digital dash, that was pretty cool.

tastyle88 03-26-2008 10:06 PM

JL8Jeff 03-26-2008 10:07 PM

I had an 87 Toyota 4Runner turbo with a digital dash. Kinda tough to get used to those bar gauges and the numbers for the speed vs a needle. And on sunny days you couldn't read any of it. But as long as it works, leave it as is.

firebirdcrazy 03-27-2008 08:08 AM

You know my 87 IROC had a digital dash. I always thought that was after market. So did GM really have those installed factory?

V 03-27-2008 08:10 AM

digital dash camaros were out there. IIRC, if the a/c controls were all push button up by the gauges, it was factory, otherwise it was aftermarket. i dont think 87 irocs had em, and as for birds, i was under the impression only 87 an 88 had the digital dash option in trans ams and gtas.

firebirdcrazy 03-27-2008 08:15 AM

My 87 Iroc had it and never asked the owner about it when he gave it to me. I got it in return for unpaid work I did for him at the time. I am talking 96 here too lol. It looked like it was stock because it was worn out and some of the lights were out.

Now that you mention it, I think it was spring of 88 that my neighbors both got their new T/A's. I bounced around in several different apartment complexes while in college so keeping the years straight isn't easy. :mrgreen:

this is the only factory camaro digital dash produced....

http://berlinetta.info/images/postcard.jpg

as for the gta/trans ams, one site said the digital dash option became available in '86.

firebirdcrazy 03-27-2008 09:13 AM
