OK, I just recived my purchase of white guages from A H-T member.
I did a search & came up with nothing on how to remove the cluster & install these.

Does anybody know if there is a DIY on how to install these white guages ??


TIA

 

Well you gotta remove quite a few things to get the gauge cluster out. I've done it before so I can probably help you with it. I'll try to scan the procedure from my manual and give it to you. IM me on aim and we can discuss it. I do believe you have the screename.

 

1. pull the radio out so you can get all the screws for the underneath of the climate control cluster... once that whole piece is out then you have 4 or 6 screws for hte instrument cluster itself... once that is out push in the tabs on the clear plastic instrument cluster cover and pull it off. once that is off you have to pull the gauge cover off.. the black one that covers the actual guages.. once that is off you should see each sperate guage.... all you have to do now is slip the white guages over the needles but becareful not to break the needles off... this does take some patience... and then once those are on if they are light up then just run the wires out the top and bottom and put it all back together and snap the clear cover back on and start screwing it all back together...

 

Im not installing indiglo guages. Im installing white overlays with red numbers.

 

Try these wutthebun gave me this link it helped me i was able to remove the dash on my 95 5th gen

****, i need the install walk through myself, i am installing a cluster from a 97 acura CL in my accord and not even sure where to start unbolting stuff...

oh, by the way i got the cluster for 19 bucks shipped to me, its for a manual, excellent deal.

 

get a hanes manual for a few bucks they have detailed pics and instrustions.. i used it to take out my gauge cluster and whole dash.... pretty simple the only hard part i remmeber was pulling out the ac controls and stuff becuase the clips were were in really tight. also pulling out the cluster was hard sinc eyou have to pull it out carfully from a tight spot..

 

just scanned sum pix .... hope this helps

oh, hot, i have that book, its sitting under my dirvers seat in the car, i know what ya mean. Thanks for the pics, im gonna right click and save them.

 

Does anyone think that the entire front console, everything, would fit in my accord, i have a feeling that is the same basic thing...i wonder.

 

From the CL? Yeah, I'm pretty sure it will. It looks identical and since the CL is based off the 5th gen accord I'm pretty sure it will.

 

excellent, maybe its time to do a complete retro-fit, now where the hell am i gonna get the entire damn dash, and console, ****, i dont think the climate control will all wire up, so i dont know, ****, it gets -20 in Jersey, i need my heat.
