If its a standard Brumby dash, it wont fit. Not without changing your dash pad, shroud above the steering column (bit that has the lights and wiper switches attached to it) and the dash wiring harness.
If its an analogue sports dash (as below) you wont have to change the dash pad, but you will need the wiring harness (all unplugs easily) plus the oil pressure sender unit (on front of motor).
The starwars/digi dashes like you have, are very hard to find in working order and are prone to failure. Best bet is the Tacho/sports dash, which you can source from a '82-'84 sedan orcoupe or '82 touring wagon, although if it is not from the wagon, you wont have the '4wd' or 'lo' indication lighting on the dash.
Hope this helps,

John.

I have bought one before after an enquiry through "Findapart".
Mine is analogue so this is what I ended up with.
Warning - I didn't stipulate I wanted a dash from a 4WD so what I ended up with was a dash that was probably out of a 2WD coupe or the like.
This means the dash didn't have the 4WD shift lights.
I also in future would state I wanted 4WD and a manual to get the lighting indicators right.
