Did I screw up? SR5 cluster swap question

I just bought an SR5 cluster off of eBay and in my excitement on seeing a "Buy it Now" button... I clicked too fast (I think)...

I'm thinking that the ECT/Power lights on the side mean that this is for an automatic trans?



Will this still work on my 1985 22R 5-speed?

Exclamation to whome it concerns

ECT stands for Electronically Controlled Transmission. When you push the button in, there should be a light on the dash that says "ECT POWER". This changes the normal shift times (based on engine vacuum, rpm, and throttle position) to a later point. i tink you can still do the swap dont forget to change the oil pressure sensor or youll burn it up

I do believe it for an automatic. You probably just wouldn't use those wires bc they arent there...my guess. Take good pictures of wiring and post what you know or learned. I am gonna do this swap sometime, my cluster has a volt gauge where yours has the ECT.

Hmmm... decisions, decisions... even if it DOES work, I think I'd like the voltmeter.

I emailed the guy on eBay to see if he would cancel my bid, but if he doesn't, I'll probably throw this thing up for sale on here.
