get a 90-91cluster out of a Si civic, crx or a 4 door (don't remember what model. LX??) Mines is out of a 4 door civic. There is not wiring at all. It is plug and play. You can get one fo probably about $30-35 from the junkyard.

My DX 90 Hatch got a 90 EX cluster. Bolted right in. All wiring was plug and play. Do yourself a favor, get the correct cluster.

Before -



After -



If the job takes you more than 30 minutes, you aint so smart.

The wiring on the plug changed between the earlier years and the later years. You have to either rearrange the pins or get the right cluster.

you can just change pins around or better yet just sell this cluster and get one for the year of your car

90-91 clusters are different from 88-89.
