^I understand what your saying, and it's a good idea, but I think there is one problem.
There is only one wire coming from each of the glow, clock, and seat belt parts on the cluster! I think that now the problem is that they aren't getting power at all now, but are grounded properly.
I think there is something loose where all the wires come together under the dash. If I'm feeling risky, I'll go through one at a time and test to make sure they all actually work. That might be a days job though. I mean it all worked until a certain point, so I'm guessing there are no broken wires or anything, just bad contacts.
That will work for my dome lights though, but that's assuming they are getting power in the first place which is what I think the problem is.

I was so relieved to find everything worked, the signals canceled properly, and I didn't disable my functional cruise control in the process. No longer do I have to jam an empty water bottle between the switch and the dash to keep Ol' Turbo from spontaneously flashing its brights.

Haha that is funny! I went to the yard to find a climate control amp, but instead found the cruise control amp in the CD I was telling you about instead. I was assuming it was broken, as it's a part that goes out a lot apparently, so I yanked it. I didn't want to try the solder trick if I didn't have to, so I figured I try it out on this instead. Went to pay and it was $50!! No thanks, I'll try the solder trick on my own amp for that price. I did it, resoldered all the capacitors and viola it worked like a charm! I was skeptical at first but it actually worked!
