Common dash cluster issues question

^^I assume you mean soldering pigtails to the board traces^^?? That is exactly what I ended up doing wth my 67 (I'm a cheap SOB) but at the time I used Molex style connectors from RadShack which of course is gone, but there are other sources of Molex / similar stuff.

Yep, exactly! There is a pretty good variety of pre made connectors with wires available so you don’t need to assemble them like a molex. A little more work, but when you are done, it is for good. I see if I can find a picture.
