As long as it's not the TCS EG6 cluster it is plug and play. TCS version requires small mods to get the lights correct.

What modification does the TCS version require? I just picked up a TCS JDM SiRII cluster and it works fine? Accept the gas/temp guages don't work..

Those should work. Make sure the screws behind the gauges are tight. I am talking about the trunk and seatbelt lights are switched.

Ah I see. Well when I got the cluster from my buddy he said it didn't work from him either but I could fix it by taking the electronics from my stock vx cluster's gas/temp guage and putting it on the sir cluster to get it to work. Would that work? Oh and it idles at 20 kp/h.. Is that normal??

It's not supposed to idle at any speed. Tighten all your screws.

Ok. I never would have thought tightening the screws would fix the problem. I'll go try it

I tightened all the screws and plugged it back in. The gas/temp guages still dont work and the speedo still idles at 20 kilometers/hr.

Definitely not right. Have you tried swapping back your old cluster to see if it does the same thing?

Any ideas of what could fix these problems?? Since the screws didn't work... and none of these problems occur with the stock cluster. Would replacing the electronics behind the temp/gas guages fix the problem? And how about the speedo?

Thanks.

Are there any damages to the circuit film behind the cluster?

Ah ok I see. What would you suspect would be damaged internally to cause these problems?

Do you have another 92-95 Civic cluster with a tach, perhaps a stock VX? If so, swap over the JDM gauges into the other cluster's housing and see if they still work.

Yeah I do have my old stock VX cluster laying around. Is there any DIY on how to do it, or should it be fairly simple swapping the guages? Also wouldn't I loose some of the features the SiR cluster has if I swapped them to the vx housing?

You won't lose any features. Remove the cover. Each gauge has 3-4 screws behind it. Straight foward. I'm suggesting this to see if your gauges are working at all and not your housing.
