so i am doing a cluster swap write up because i see this question being asked all the time so here it goes.
first this is the stock plain cluster from a 96 civic dx
first just un screw the two top screws that are found up top of the bezel of the cluster.
second after the bezel is out there are four screws that are clearly exposed unscrew those
after those screws are out just unplug the three plugs from the back of the bezel
then after those are out plug in the new si cluster
after the three plugs are in screw in the four screws and then put the bezel back in place.
and ur done here is the finished product

WTF? Are you asking someone how to do it, are you showing us the cluster you have, or are you just brain dead?


If you're asking ANYTHING about a cluster swap...i'll just answer by saying "They're all plug and play" as long as both clusters are from a 96-00 Civic. In the case of the cluster you posted the pics of, it will fit easily in any Civic from 1996-2000. But if you want an answer...a question is usually needed.

I'm an *** because you can't create a thread properly? Ask the question before you post 3 pictures and call it a day.

I will wait for nothing.


Ok...Now that you're finished I see what you were doing. You should make the thread title a bit more descriptive such as "How To: Install Si Cluster" So when people are searching, they'll find this thread easier.

But between you and I, if you don't know how to install a plug and play cluster, you should not be working on cars...or breathing for that matter.

theres one kinda important step you forgot, and I see the result of it on your gauge cluster. Before someone goes and starts taking apart the dashboard or any interior wiring for that matter, disconnecting the battery is a very good recommendation to prevent an SRS light. Easy it may be to remove, but an added pain in the *** that could easily be prevented.

hatch96y7

alright ill snap a pic tomorrow im new to doing write ups

hatch96y7

not really luck .. he didnt know what he is talking about .. removing the cluster has nothing to do with the airbag light coming on

J0eski

if anythgin should show with good pics how to make an si cluster fit in a 5th gen 92-95 civic
cause i have an si and would like the si cluster in my 93 si

ekKO

good write up...the title was mis-leading...the tach will work...SRS light is more than likely the seatbelt buckle sensor on the driver seat

hatch96y7

um yes the tach works perfectly i changed the title i dont know y it doesnt show.
this was a write up for the people who ask how to swap an si cluster into there 96-00 civic.
shows how it is a simple plug and play
