Cluster Install
I'm sure it can be done, but it's shaped a little different. Are you sure it's going to look right? Maybe you might want to get a Xsi cluster instead?
Also, isn't the 3rd gen integra cluster's speedometer electronically operated instead of cable like the DA?
I don't know how to install a 3rd gen cluster into a DA but I can tell you how to get the DA one out if you'd like. First the instrument cluster bezel needs to be removed. You'll need to take off the temp **** (hot to cold) and the a/c ****. Then you'll need to remove the plastic insert that goes behind them (so you can get to some of the trim screws you'll need to remove). There will also be a small black plastic tab in the bottom right corner of the bezel that you'll need to remove to access another trim screw. There will also be two more trim screws above the cluster in the bezel. Now you should be able to pry out the bezel, but be careful because it is easy to break as well as you will have to remove the harness plugs for all of the switches on the bezel. Then there wil be two more trim screws on the bottom of the clusters to remove. After that you wil want to pull very carefully on the cluster so you can get it out just far enough for you to slide your hand behind it so that you can disconnect the spedometer cable and the three electrical connectors from the back of the cluster. Be careful, it is very easy to break the speedometer cable.
