I really want a tach, so I'm going to purchase an EX cluster here shortly.

My question is, how do I set the EX cluster to the same mileage as what I have. Or even swap my mileage over to the EX cluster? Thanks alot! (btw, I did search, and didn't come upon anything helpful)

 

If you aren't worried about the legality of rolling the odo back, then I would say go for it. I saw a link to a "how to" thread not too long ago. I'll try to find it.

 

You don't need to, just unscrew the speedometer on the clusters and switch them that's what i did, it's like 4 screws on the back of the cluster.

Easiest, but you can also get some dentist picks and pry two apart and move the middle one.

I do it with needle nose pliers and a steak knife.

just do that, thats also what i did and seeing as its a dx cluster to an ex it shouldn't be a problem. i did the same thing with my ej8 to an si cluster but the speedo is off because of the diff face lol.

 

I've had the cluster out before, and I know what the DX one looks like.

You just undo the screws on that block part in the middle of the back and it comes apart?

 

thats how i got my ex cluster so cheap the speeso was broken on the new one and i needed to switch them anyways (some ppl on ebay are dumb they pay 150 for a good cluster but i get mine for 35 lol)

yes, basically take the speedo (with your mileage) out of the dx cluster by unscrewing it from the housing *try not to touch the face of it because oily finger prints will be on your nice new cluster* and swap it into the ex one... close it back up, plug it in, and enjoy your new tach.
