Hit a small snag during my rewiring of the cluster yesterday. I had made up all new terminal ends for the dash lights and warning lamps plus new terminal ends for the harness to make contact with only to find out THE HARD WAY that you can't solder onto STAINLESS STEEL!!!

Needless to say my project is stalled until payday when I can get some different material to use. Like a sheet of copper. So until then......
