Yup. All the AC sleds from that model year can use both the regular and deluxe guage cluster. My regular cluster screwed up within weeks of buying my sled, and the dealer threw the Deluxe cluster on it free of charge, because he happened to have one in stock.

Theres currently about 5 feet of snow in front of my house (and drifts up to 8-10'). All soft powder. Too bad its -43C with the wind chill ATM.

It is a complete marketing ploy... but a brilliant one at that.

I'd be dead. My seats are electronic and they take longer than I suppose I would have to totally recline.

It's so much easier to see than the standard cluster.

It's mid-20's here and there's about 3 feet on the ground. I'll be riding later for sure!

That’s the least GM could do for all the FREE positive publicity he’s got them!
