I've used both AISAT and Applied Instruments in the past, they tend to specialise more in Aussie stuff, and Mitsi, Pajero's have major issues with dashes, speedo's failing.
I've spoken to them about doing a Odo adjustment on an '04 Liberty and they weren't sure if it was possible.

I'm on Hols at the moment, but I'll go through my own workshop manuals and check the pinouts, apart from DCCD inputs and SI-Drive, they should be similar..... famous last words though

sti defi cluster is definitely a nice mod. not sure how plug and play it would be on a forry though, and to complicate matters v8/v9 etc differ so it would be trial and error in every sense of the words.

I am led to believe it can be done but not sure it is even worth it.
I can get one delivered from Kris at Rising Sun for a fair price but believe the changeout might cost a lot more and not be simple. If John can assist with plug diagrams then I will be in a better place to decide.
The other option is to buy a new adm wrx cluster. If the plugs were the same and you could just plug and play then I would consider doing that.

My other issue is the abs system and my dccd controller...nothing is simple.
