RS Part #'s and Availability

The paddles that turn with the wheel confuse me.

I do not see why not, as I understand the manual selector is electronic controlled. But I personally preferred the manual selector on the shift knob, probably because I am dyslexic and never got used to the steering wheel mounted paddles.

Shout out for dyslexia!

I tried changing the volume while turning a week ago, and I can say with confidence that I completely agree.

Anyone have the tachometer (cluster) number for the RS manual transmission? I'm taking it will be a direct bolt-on replacement for a 2013 LTZ 1.4 with a manual. Thanks

The housing would probably swap out pretty easily, but faces are usually difficult because of the needles.
I don't know how the ECU would feel about a whole knew cluster's board though.

Interesting to find out.

I have read that using google is the way to go but have not had as much success as this (and other similar) post indicates.

Anytime you'd rather use Google's search engine for a specific site just go to the Google homepage.
(Or if you have the Google search bar in your browser's upper right corner you can use that)

The format for the search is like so:

site:www.sonicownersforum.com <what you want to search>

The spacing should be exactly like that, no space between 'site:' and the address you want to search.
After your search terms you can even use Google's format to give it words you want to avoid by using the '-' symbol.

Say for instance you want to not hear from a specific moron, like lovehayano, you just do

-lovehayano

I would assume the cluster would just be a simple install its not like they upgraded anything to warrent a new cluster just a different overlay

I wouldn't doubt that the ECM holds the miles on it and not the digital cluster.

 

[Macehammer]

Pretty sure the Tach is the same in the Auto. Or at least, what's in the attached picture is what I have....

Ik when ive looked at them online they always tell u how many miles the cluster has on it .. so idk then

I could be wrong, it's just speculation. I assume that it would be controlled by the ECM because if not the cluster would need some sort of battery to keep the info on the board. Think about computers and the the little CMOS battery on the motherboard, you take that out and it forgets the time date and any BIOS settings.

 

[$ub$onic]

It would not need a big battery if it has a small solid state memory

To me it looks like the only thing different is the needle itself and the back of the tach.

Anyone have the part number (and price) for the RS shift knob?

 

[pacman552]

anyone know the part # and price info for the rear disc's calibers and hubs?

 

[DevilSonic89]

u can buy the cluster and just have the dealership re-flash it.:banana:

 

[stimpy2301]

Anyone yet figure out the P/Ns of the front bumper cover, moustache-less grill, and/or foglights & foglight assemblies? With my animal-on-the-highway damage to my LTZ, I'm considering getting the RS parts to replace the existing hardware, assuming, of course, they're interchangeable.

I'll be talking to the dealership about this, but any info I have in advance is always helpful.
