Yep... My fault. Didn't know any better when in did my deal. My granite was on the lot and I liked it and bought it. Didn't realize the cluster was an option. Not unhappy with my truck. Just wish the cluster was part of the rebel package; as it should be. May upgrade if it's not outrageously priced

It blows my mind that the Rebel gauges are an option. That would be a dealbreaker for me.

Dealers that pre-ordered Rebels for their lots just seemed to randomly pick groups of options. If you ordered via the Ram web site configurator, you had an option for the gauges. It's not super obvious, but it's there. If you ordered in person from a dealer, I blame the dealer for not pointing out a low-cost option that makes a nice interior touch.

I've called dealerships and they won't even look up the price, they say all gauge packs are to each truck by vin # and you can't add it later cuz of the wiring is different. I disagree on the wiring. I haven't found a rebel gauge pack yet to argue their point yet.

I made sure to specify the rebel cluster when the dealer was searching for me, had to end up calling the dealer to confirm that it did have the correct rebel cluster. Doesn't make sense why this wouldn't come standard.

I would be very interested in finding out if it can even be done. I love my Rebel but don't understand how this item is even an option as it is the main badged item you look at while driving. Only after seeing what it is supposed to look like on this forum I was greatly disappointed to see the rebel gauge cluster.

It's frustrating because there is no way I wouldn't have added it when I ordered the truck had I noticed. The premium Rebel "DID Instrument Cluster" is an option under "Colors & Interiors" for $175. You have to scroll down to see it. The dealer told me, at the dealership, while we were building the thing, that the "Colors & Interiors" are all the same and can't be changed. That's what ticks me off. I added every option available, with the exception of the sunroof since all FCA sunroofs leak, and then it comes with the old EVIC style cluster instead. I noticed it missing within 5 seconds of sitting down. The dealer said no big deal, we'll just order one. Only problem is, they can't order one. That's why I'm having my lawyer handle this. I wouldn't have handed over the check and taken possession of the truck had I known it was going to be this big of a nightmare. The premium line specific clusters are standard on the 2016 Laramie Longhorn and Limited, but not on the Rebel. Having said all of that, I freaking LOVE this truck! That's what makes this whole sideshow so frustrating, because I want to get back to the fun stuff. FCA and the dealership both agreed to swap the cluster, then the technical details became an issue, and I'm stuck in the middle between them. I still don't know the after market cost of the cluster (dealer says over $1000) or the availability (FCA says they're only available under warranty claims). A total cluster you know what.
