    Is there anyone that makes custom gauge clusters?
    I wanted a red/black one with a 160 max speedometer, and a digital display for the gears and the miles.

    Also does anyone do custom replacements for the piece on the back that says pontiac? I wanted one that saw GT on it if anyone makes it. Would that even look good on a GP? Idk lol.

    Might be worth looking into seeing if a retrofit from an Impala or Monte will work. Goes up to 140 and meets your other demands:

    There are a lot of companies that make overlays that will give you a higher speedo. Not sure on the digital odometer and gear selector.

    I don't think an overlay can actually show a higher speed than your current speedometer. Reason being is the overlay is nothing electronic, it won't change the way the needle moves.

    Speedhut use to make a custom overlay for a Grand Prix with 150 mph speedo. I knew someone who had one. I was going to get one, but I never did, wasn't really worth it to me...

    The needle will move past your current speedo in the 97-03's. I've seen it first hand. All you have to do is extend the marks.

    Yep, she does. Been 150 a couple times myself. Haven't fully buried it but have come close...

    Meh, an overlay isn't worth $169 to me lol.
    I was just curious if anyone did custom work with this stuff, would a gauge cluster from a GTO fit?

    I don't think that exact one would fit though, would it?

    That link is for a GTO that's for sale.

    No, you don't have to reprogram anything. As it is now the speedometer would just keep going right off the numbers. All the new gauges do is add more numbers past what you already have.

    I don't really care about the speedometer number...it could still stop at 110 for all I care I just wanted a custom red/black cluster with the digital display.
