Ill trade you that HF cluster for a 90-91 REAL SI cluster. Let me know, I just like the fact of a shift light and i never knew HF's had that.

It should fit in ok, I'm not sure if the shift light will work though.

Yeah your redline is between 6500-7k.

Just use it! As long as everything works. If you don't like the "shift" light take out the bulb.
