Facts
- Chevrolet built the cluster around a microprocessor and liquid-crystal technology. Three colour LCD panels gave speed, rpm, fuel and nine further readouts, next to a central switch panel.[3]
- The electronic LCD dash was standard on every C4.[1][2]
- For 1990 Chevrolet replaced the digital gauges with what it called a hybrid instrument panel, redesigned around the new airbag system: a digital LCD speedometer in the middle of the cluster, flanked by an analog tachometer and secondary gauges.[4][5][6]
- Electronic climate control was new for 1986 as an extra-cost option: RPO C68 'Electronic Air Conditioning' went on 16,646 of the 35,109 cars built that year.[1][8]
- The 1994 interior revision added a passenger airbag and knee bolster, deleted the glovebox, and gave the instruments white graphics that turn tangerine at night.[1][11]
- Delco-Bose stereo (RPO UU8, $895) was optional from the first model year, and 43,607 of the 51,547 cars built for 1984 had it. A Delco-Bose system with CD player (RPO U1F) joined the option list for 1990.[7][9][10]
