Default JDM Cluster Help!!!

i have a jdm cluster in my 91 crx.. the cable VSS was replaced with the electronic VSS to make it work. I find the Kilometer reading annoying, now i think it would be too hard to change back to a usdm cluster so what do you guys think would be my best option as to reading the speed in MPH. i was thinking about purchasing the apexi rev speed meter.

you need something like another oem honda speedo that uses the electronic vss signal, like taking the EG speedo out of the cluster and rigging it into your EF8 cluster by making sure the contact points line up properly with the cluster housing & green wiring contact mat. Not something that can be done w/out some mods, nor will it looks that good with out trimming and some custom brackets, but that's the only way to make it work.... the easy way.

Get yourself a 99-00 Civic Si clutser, that's what I have in my 89 hatch and I love it. Revs to 9.5 and tachs out at 150mph. I wouldn't take 500 bucks for it now man. It was easy to wire too, everything matches up in color except for like 3 wires. It fits in your stock cluster housing if you remove the brackets (90-91 housing only!)
