cap269 you wouldn’t happen to know if the gauge clusters are unique to the options on the car, would you? For example, I’ve found 2 used 2004 clusters, one came out of an AWD vehicle, and the other from a FWD with out ABS. My Vibe is FWD with ABS. Just wondering if any ’04 cluster will work?

The indicator lights tell the story: definitely a 2005 cluster

cap269, do you happen to know if the vehicles mileage is stored on the cluster or in the PCM?

Son of a bum, good catch cap269. The VIN (5Y2SL62824Z462244) & Title show 2004, yet I definitely have the tire pressure light. I see there are other light/indicator differences that I can cross check as well. My daughter has the car in another state at the moment so I’ll need her to take a picture for me to confirm. Nevertheless, it’s looking like the cluster has been switched (argh). Crap, I guess that means I have no idea how many miles are really on the car (or what else was done to for that matter), and I’m assuming finding a used ’04 cluster is my only option.
