made a JDM ITR cluster the ghetto way.. posted for your enjoyment
hah just jdm'ed out my cluster and you can do it too! just get yellow paint, paint brush, and '194 amber' bulbs hehe
well... here are the final results (downside for me is that the RPM and speedometer needles dont move... well speedometer does after goin 10 mph... but RPMS were working but stopped... hopefully they will fix themselves)
some pics!

lol why would you want your needles not to work?

so its jdm color... but uhm it's still not kilometers... if yer speedo is not workin properly you must have pulled on the cable in the back, you can either get it recalibrated but doubt it's going to fix itself... the rpms is connected to a plug, if its not working chances are it's not fully plugged in...

One of the reason why I avoid all this DIY "JDM" mods. Should've just bought an ITR cluster, not expensive at all (usually under $175)

Re: (xAznRac3rx02)

Re: (jweezy225)
yea... maybe the thing is sticking to something... have u tried opening it up again and trying to figure it out? I dont think its cuz the needles are too heavy (depends on how many coats u put)

Re: (xAznRac3rx02)
DO NOT REMOVE NEEDLE FROM CLUSTER it will stop working properly....I did same thing like how you did yours....my temp was across the overheating line, rpm needle didnt move, mph started at 40, the only thing working was gas. Im looking for a LS cluster....someone have one...pm me...thanks

Re: (Moua)
okay... so if you're not supposed to move the needles from the cluster, then how are you supposed to spray paint it?? Do you just have to tape up all the stuff behind it first?

Re: (xAznRac3rx02)
i never removed my needles, i just put cardboard pieces behind each needle i was going to paint.... mph is working perfectly now... just still same problem wit the rpm guage... i will try n look at it tomorrow, if everything comes out perfect tomorrow then i think its a nice mod if your bored... or just got a stock car or something

Re: (SpoonKillerB)
removing the needles isn't the end of the world.. Are they dragging/sticking on the faces? Did u push them down too tight? When u put them back on, make sure the cluster is in your car all set to go. Turn the key on (just to ur lights come on, not the car) that way it 0's out the little pins where the needles go, then i usually line the needles up w/ the little pin sticking out @ the 0, and pop it back on. However, the temp, and gas guage may be a little trickier gj on the diy

**** all these haters in here, its your car if you like it go for it. Im tired of all this JDM bullshit who cares if its JDM or not it his car hes the one who has to drive it not you. Who cares if its not authnetic JDM whats the big ******* deal you have parts on your car from Japan so that makes you cool. No it makes your car a LITTLE different from someone elses but it makes you a ******* dork when you try to put someone down because you think your the JDM king. To recap stop ******* hating cause its not what you would do. This was directed to the **** suckers in this thread that gave thumbs down and negative comments.

he's the one that said he made a jdm itr cluster, people are just responding to it. Maybe he would've gotten a better response in the appearence forum on this paticular mod. Or maybe he could've never used the letter jdm, and just said I painted my needles yellow and added amber lights.......cause that's all he did
jweezy, get my switches for your JDM folding mirrors, and you'll really be looking JDM y0 ............ j/k

if you read a few posts above you, you would see that he figured out why the rpm gauge wasn't moving, it was just paint sticking. Now everything is working fine.
You did a good job man, even though it's not authentic, it looks cool. Should have just used a little paint brush and some of that detail modeling paint from any craft/hobby store. There was a diy article over at Team-integra.net on this also. might want to check it out if someone else decides to do this. do a search because it's not in the article section though.
