“Instrument cluster panel has embedded LED lights, no replaceable bulbs...forces entire cluster replacement from unsalvageable or used/salvaged vehicles with no guarantee of true internal condition temporarily or long-term, leading to many safety & dysfunction issues, including rigged components such as false mileage, etc. My xl7 odometer/trip meter blacked out at 130k miles, should last lifetime of vehicle. Suzuki no longer manufacturing the clusters, too cost-prohibitive for owners if they were still making them. …”
