It may fit, but the guages won't work.

In 98, GM changed the wiring to Class 2 Serial data for the IP.

Yes, you could spend a lot of money and probably get it to work.

Easier to purchase an overlay for the 97 dash.

if you want to bolt the 98 cluster into a 97 dash i dont know if they mount the same.

orangesonoma did an entire dash swap last year from a 95 to a 98. he even got the entire gauge cluster working too.

Nope not plug & play you'll have to convert the entire dash and wiring harness.
