It'll work but if I tell ya the trick I'd have to kill ya. It involves alldata and a complete bcm retrofit and changing the doors over to newer style driver door and passenger door module control via the bcm to do it right.

If you wanna rig it you can leave the old bcm as a slave to control the door locks only. It's a major PITA and not for the faint of heart or those with weak wiring skills.

Did it on my dads 02 for him. If I had it to do all over again it would be way easier to just grab a complete inside outside harness from a newer truck then it's plug and play.

why you need to do that? i think you only need to swap some wires location on the ipc connetor te only gage that will now work its the oil pressure, 06 uses the serial data to run it, 01 uses bulb signal directly to the ipc, you can get a 01 bulb and wire it to make it work

It won't work because while you can wire up all the correct wires and make everything go to where it should, the cluster computer will shut the whole cluster down for a programming error the moment you attempt to power it up.
