Our Civics never came with low fuel lights from the factory therefore it wont be easy to hook up the light. You could get a low level sensor from an Integra.

I came up with a circuit that reads the resistance from the fuel level sensor and runs it through a comparator and turns on the light when the level gets to a preset level.

Here is my solution.....

Hook up the wire from the door light on the cluster to the dome light wire in the drivers side a-pillar, I believe it's the green/white wire. You will have to double check if it's the green/white or the white/red.

by low lever sensor u mean the 1 thats in the tank right? if they have that, then the integras must have some kind of circut like u made to turn the light on already in them, or is it in the cluster its self?

Right, the circuit is built into the Integra low level sensor.

Was going to make a hybrid one using a teg & civic but I used an SiR Fuel Sending unit instead. I found one on ebay.
Swapped out the units. Ran a wire from the plug @ the fuel sending unit. Ran it to the dash and wired it up the correct pin
location(#7 on 10 pin plug on the back of the cluster). It works great.
I luckly saved the instructions. If anybody needs it just PM me.

Easiest thing to do is put in a teg sending unit. wire it up, be done... for me, I just tell myself "I think I need gas" when the gauge reads low.
