96 Cherokee Classic, want 97+ gauges

Hey all I am new here. I'm from Colorado Springs, and I have a blue 96 Cherokee Classic that I just bought.

My current instrument cluster does NOT have the idiot lights, everything is already in a good style. I just prefer the 97's+ instrument clusters.


Is this swap at all possible?

Possible, yes
Feasible, no

Would it really be that big of a PITA?

Buying a 97 would be easier

Or just being satisfied with what you have that already works right

The two body styles are completely different, but both are OBDII.

But if you really want to go down that road:
You may want to see if it fits.
You may want to see if it will communicate.

The second is most important. I sincerely doubt it is plug and play. Jeep had a tendency of changing plugs on even the most basic sensor from year to year.

Keep in mind the 96 has an analog mileage counter, the 97+ are digital.
