I've read a lot about using a 2013 cluster in a 2014 and having problems, so I purchased a cluster from a wrecked 2015. But I'm not convinced that it was OEM. Does anyone have part numbers? The part number for my new cluster appears to be P68242855AB could not find much about it before I bought it. Seller did give the doner VIN which is a 2015 Laramie.

Drop the "P" off and try googling it again

Yeah. I have a 13 cluster in my 14 2500 and everything works fine. I have not looked for build date.

I'm kinda looking for that same longhorn cluster for my truck. Or even the limited one. My truck has the premium cluster with the LCD but when they imported it from Canada to the US they got the "standard" faceplate that reads MPH.

You can order a new faceplate. THe nomenclature used on the parts sites is "lens and mask). It snaps right on and you could probably sell your old one if it's in good shape. I paid around $80 for a new one...

Problem is that allmoparparts site doesn't specifically show which faceplate is which. So I don't want to order the wrong one. Might see if @AllMoparParts.com can get exact numbers for each one.

He can, I think he made a post years ago listing each trims part number too.

Would like to have that Limited overlay on my Premium cluster. Haven’t seen that one before. Rebel cluster looks killer also.

that would be helpful because searching "cluster" returns the full gauge cluster and the lens/masks. But only the Rebel mask shows an actual picture. The rest are just drawings and no description showing what option they are.

From my searches, he said to get the VIN of a vehicle with the cluster you like and he can get the part number for the particular lens and mask.

I feel like I posted the part numbers in the past too from other people's posts, but I can't find it searching so far.
