I just installed CL cluster in my 5th gen. The cluster is the same dimensionally as the 96-97 obd2 5th gen cluster except for the mounting screw tabs. The font and colors are different, but the guages swap over fine.

The RPM/MPH reads incorrectly though.

Not sure if it is becuase it was an AUTO cluster in my manual or what. Anyway, it reads 2k RPM at 80MPH. lol, makes me think I am saving gas.

Not sure what the problem is, but I will compare with ecu reading for both when I get a chance.

yes. it doesn't fit perfectly (1/2 in. gaps) and if you're not comfortable with wiring i don't suggest you do it. it was only hard for me because i made it hard, but with the comments and suggestions of ppl here on HT..i got it in full effect now.

Thanks Touring. That install looks clean, and the gaps aren't noticeable at all. Good job.

it doesn't look bad at all but the gaps would bother me if it was mine so i think i'll stick with painting my bulbs for the red affect.
