My 85 Coupe GT has the trip computer option which doesnt work,, Ive been searching for a replacement and havent found one.. Ive gotten desperate enough to buy one from an 87 5000 on e-bay which looks similar but Im doubting it will work. In my opinion this gadget is part of the car that separates it from others like it ( these cars are well equipped) and I want it to work.
I know most enthusiasts frown on such features nor care if they dont function anymore, but I do and need some help getting it to function. I need to either get this 5000 computer to work in it or find a 4000/CoupeGT instrument cluster with one installed that works..
This is the only forum for Coupe GT's I could find that is active and thriving,, please help

Friend of mine has a salvage yard, he had a Coupe GT with the analog trip meter dash in it. Don't know if it is still there or not, you can call him at 717-266-6666 and ask for Alan (he's not there Mondays though, due to the salvage sale).

My question is, is there a seperate box or computer that runs the digital trip thing? I have a dash that I bought for the speedometer but it had that digital clock so I just swapped out the speedometer and kept my analog clock. So I have a digital clock/tripmeter with a bad speedometer.
