You really need to replace your dial cluster. Dials from a hawkeye are a straight swap in terms of wiring, but you need to shave a bit of plastic off one of the plugs.

You can also use JDM dials too from a Blob, but need a speedo convertor.

The HVAC controls are more difficult, need to do some soldering etc. Good guide on this YT channel:


I did both:

Later swapped to Hawk UK dials:
