Hi all,

I was wondering can you put an XF Ghia digital dash straight into an XF GL Falcon with the current wiring plugs or do you need to add more? Can a whole XF ghia dash fit into a basic XF falcon as well?

It's for a friend of mine............

the dash will fit in not a problem, however i think the speed sender is different and the extra guages may need wiring. Warlock did a ZL fairlane interior into an XD falcon, he'd probably know.

the instrument cluster will go straight in, but you'll need to replace the oil pressure switch with a oil pressure sender

IIRC you also may have to add a line for a tacho, but i'm not 100% on that

XF Ghia cluster will go straigh into a falcon GL or any XF

XF Ghia dash will go straight into falcon GL but u will need to replace all wiring looms etc to get all the stuff working, i recently done it to mine but it takes alot of time to do it all.

Put one into my GL Falcon Wagon 85 model. Will plug straight in with only
the oil sender changed. I did find the speedo not too accurate any more and I think the fuel gauge is out as well ....speedo with different diff ratios and fuel tank with different capacities, but hey everything lights up.
