What is this gauge cluster from and where can I get it?

I'm slowly collecting parts for my rebuild before I get started and when searching for instrument cluster conversion I found this pic but can't find any source. Anybody know who sells it? And what is the cluster from?

It must be from a diesel with that useless 5k tach.

Re: What is this gauge cluster from and where can I get it?

It's a combination of the cluster from the donation dash and the original. With some plastic welding skills, glue, resin and backing cloth... It could be done. I can only imagine the man hours involved in the final product. Does give you a little chubby though huh.

Comparing my 06 Yukon XL 2500 that has that exact cluster only a higher reading tach (gas engine) and my square, it could be done. Appears there will be some pop in plates where the light switch will be. I'd be anxious to know which column is going to be used and see if they morphed the newer (99 to 07) one to work.

My buddy and I were attempting to do this with his Suburban, it would take some trimming of the metal dash to physically fit the cluster, at least with a 99-02 Cluster.

Any aftermarket parts guys here take notice, this will sell

I've got 2 years allotted for the build this could be an option. I don't know I'll have to dig deeper......
