Helping a son with with electrical issues on his 1980 Avenger & had to rebuild most of the copper traces on the instrument cluster. Most of them had lifted off the backing & some had been folded over. Had to solder 2 fractures. https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/424557085.jpg
Problem now is that the main plugs are also stuffed from a previous brutal owner at some stage
Anybody in Hamilton district know where I can source a pair of replacement plugs that we can splice in
There is only a few wires solder wires onto tracks and put a utilux loom plug on there crimp one on the other end glue wires down with epoxy

This dash is apparently unique to the Chrysler Avenger because it's the full 6 instrument cluster.
No idea if it was used on any other models but that info could be very useful.

Mmm oh ok cool. They look like larger versions of the cable connectors from XT 1980's floppy drives etc
