Need instrument cluster help quickly!

[docdyh]

I bought a silver gauge dial instrument cluster from a certain online auction seller who advertised as fits all non-S Boxster 97-04. Once I received, I noticed that the instrument indicator lights do not match the location of my current lights. I am thinking that instrument clusters are not interchangeable for all years? Part no. on the back of this cluster is: 986.641.103.05

I have a 2002 base. Need answer quickly so I can send back to seller if it does not fit my model year. It is in great shape though . Thanks.

That is for a 2000.
They changed several times over the years

thanks Marc,

Back to the seller it goes..as to why I did not say ebay..I don't like giving plugs but obviously I just know did..it could have been Craig's list or yahoo aucitions.

It depends what color the plugs on the back of the cluster are. Grey, blue, and green are for 01-04.

If you need one of these, I have one laying around out of my 6-speed S.
