Default how do I make this SI cluster fit my DX?

I have a '89 CRX DX and I supposively got '89 SI cluster but it doesn't work and there is an extra blue plug that I do not know what it is for. How do I wire up my car to work with that cluster? When I put the new one in, nothing worked.

My Cluster (Front) '89 DX:


My Cluster (Back) '89 DX:

it's supposed to have that blue plug, whoever sold it to you took it off for some reason. You can do one of two things, either remove that part from your original cluster, and add it to the one you bought, or dissassemble the one you just bought and swap out the gas gauge into the original gauge cluster. I used to have a crx that the tach wouldn't work, and I just took out the tach from a new cluster and just replaced the broken one. That way I didn't have to deal with adjusting the mileage or anything like that. Hope that helps.

Dude, you already have the tach, why would you bother switching it? I think you missed the point of the mod, the point is to change it so you have a tach, not because you wanna say you have Si cluster.

Look at mine:

I said my gas gauge didnt work and I need to know how much gas I have. I dont wanna get stuck and that section of the guages dont swap. They are made by 2 diffrent companies in that year so they are wired up diffrently. I need to know how to make it work thats all.
