    Gauge faces

    Are the gauge faces the same style from 1995-2005?
    Looking at some white overlays.
    So long and thanks for all the fish.

    other than the max speed referenced, yes. But if you're not using Marauder overlays, you should be fine. Just verify that the speedo tops out at the same place and all the included gauges at least look like yours. I think the only difference in the gauges themselves is the color of the needle. I know everything technically fits between 92 and 01 because my 93 can physically fit the gauges from an 01 cluster.

        +1, I believe that will work back to '92 for CV, back to '95 for MGM as long as your speedometer also goes up to 120MPH like the picture in the ad.

          +1 as long as you have a 120MPH speedo, you're good. The original speedo in the 92-94 CVs I think was 85MPH for base/LX and 140 for Fleet/Police/HPP. Swap in a later speedo though and adjust the odo to match the original one and you're golden on those models. Kind of a PITA to adjust the odo though, so there's that.

            Forgot about the early Aeros still being 85 MPH speedos. In that case '95-'05 120 MPH should work with the overlays in that ebay listing.
            Looked it up on carsforsale.com and the first '92 I found had the 120 MPH cluster, so I kept looking because I was sure you were right and found a '93 with the 85 MPH speedo: https://www.carsforsale.com/vehicle/details/89238224
            I was thinking you could just swap the odo, but I might be thinking of the '90-'91 CV ('90-'94 MGM) clusters which are super simple to swap the ODO on.
