There are a bunch of differences in the wiring. I could not give you the specifics, but you will need to cut and resplice wires. It is not as simple as just moving the location of the wire on the plug (re-pinning). The power for the tach and spedo are fed off the large plug on the left of the cluster on the '88's. On most other years the power was transfered to the small plug on the other side of the cluster.

I can make up a wire chart that will tell you which wire goes where, but it will take some time. Which model CRX's are the clusters from?

hey, could i get in on some of this. i have an 88 hatch dx, and just got a cluster from a 90 (i dont know if it was an si, but it might have been)

anyway, my car did not have a tach, and the new cluster does. plugs in, but tach doesnt work, and light ights wont come one, and it just acts crazy. any help would be great, thanks.
