No it will not. The wiring is actually a lot different. Im in the process of swapping over my 87 to factory gauges but havent finished it so i cant give you exact wire positions in the plug ans such.

I am wondering what else is involved to get factory gauges to work in a truck that was OE with Idiot lights?

I know this is an older page, and I hope you are still looking at this. For the proper swap you are going to need a donor vehicle with the factory gauge package. That alone does not mean you are in the clear. Your original harness is not equipped to do this. A little make-shift work is needed to make it all happen.................. my 2 cents.
