The Limited Edition clusters were just on the 01-03 Montes that had the High Sports package (for some reason that made your car limited edition) haha

You can try junk yards. All 2001-03 Montes with the high sports appearance option package got the LE cluster. My 03 has one.

I think ALL SS models should have came with the red bow tie. You would probably be best off swapping the LE overlay with your cluster (as I believe the cluster stores your odometer, so changing the cluster will throw off your odometer).

Maniac :iagree: Especially the supercharged, I also think you could just change the overlay pretty easy.

You would have to go to the dealership to transfer over the Odometer. I did a similar swap with my 05 Mustang and had to pay a core fee - once the new cluster had my info, the original one got sent back to Ford and I got the core charge back.

The "Limited Edition" cluster wasn't available on all SS models, just a few (IE: Pace Car, HSAP, etc)... There are also other specialty clusters such as the Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt, etc

The dealer can't program the odometer in a used cluster. They have to send it out. I do offer odometer programming services (cheaper than the dealer does)

A word to the wise... Be careful buying a used cluster as many of the them need repair work for bad motors and burned out bulbs
