    You have a 00 VE right. Why dont you just swap the cluster. That's more simple and cleaner. That's what i did on my 00 VE.

    I don't know about the 98+ corollas but there is a wire coming out of the distributor on my car. You could probably find the right wire in a wiring diagram from the haynes manual or something. Other than that theres just the normal backlighting, power, and ground.

    Wow, so if i can find the same cluster that the other 2000 corollas come with i can get the rpm guage and the temp outside guage with out needing to run any new wires or anything?

    Yea, just plug and play. You dont have to re-run any wire. But the outside temp will show -E- because your car do not have the sensor.

    Just replace your cluster then, much simpler. Why would you need the outside temperture anyways?? I have it now, and I dont think its that useful.
