Well if the Ram is anything like the Dakota, unless it sees the factory gauge cluster, you'll get a "no bus" code and the truck won't start. So you may need to try and adapt the Ram's cluster to fit in the Dakota.......??
***Update*** Will not need to change out. The Ram uses a updated cluster with the exception on the SRT which was why the Ram threw the "no bus" code. The dakota uses the same type cluster as the SRT.

Nice it's always good to have a custom cluster! Even if you would get the same errors i would tear apart the current one and use the wiring to hook up that way you can keep most of the stock stuff just different look!. Your going to need some pics though. I would use a aluminum back plate and white gauges would look kick ***!

BTW, someone HAS already done this swap successfully and completely. It was with an older Gen Viper motor (450HP), but same idea basically. It was in a RC Dakota Sport.

Wow that truck would really bea sleeper. Pull up beside him and you think that it's just another dak, then he takes off and leaves you in a cloud of smoke, better think again!! I like it!
