question to all that would know the specifics...... and or help me....
i have an 1999 civic si and i was messin with the cluster (replacing the dash lights/illuminating the redline/si emblem well in the process the fuel guage needle popped off and or broke if you will how would i go about fixin that and or replacing without spending a **** load of money...

would a type-r cluster fit and directly hook up in the harness or would i have to modify it?????

i know this is possible.. but how to make it possible..... could somebody tell me how to make a s2000 digital cluster work in my honda si?? ive seen it in magazines but they dont say how they went about doin it......

 

I don't know about fixing your broken SI cluster but I know an EK9 Civic Type-R cluster will work and fit right in.

 

IDK bro, when I was replacing the faces on my Ex grill I popped off the gas & temp needles...

They were broke & would not go back on. I had to buy a new one for about $50 at a scrap yard.

You can try to go to a scrap yard (though when i looked i couldn't find ANY 96+ civics.)

I went to H-K Auto salvage and got a new cluster & swapped the broken pieces with working ones.

Im sure any 96-00 gas needle & motor housing would work, just make sure not to break it when you transfer it into your cluster

give them a call & ask

 

i figure that if i want something then i need to reserch before i even think about acting on something but its nice to know that i can put a type-r cluster in just from all the pics ive seen from all the clusters the plug ins are diff to me from si to ctr.... regardless they still will no bull???? cuz id hate to drop three hundy in a ctr cluster and it not work is all...... now on another note what about the s2000 cluster??????

 

all 96-00 civic clusters are plug and play.. also 97-01 crv clusters.

s2000 cluster requires quite a bit of work, and other pieces for the vss and such.. so unless you get GOOD prices you're looking anywhere inbetween 350-500

 

but how relatively are the parts do do so on a cluster???? and difficulty rating on a scale from one to ten???? do you know personally how to go about doing something like that????

 

im just tryin to go unique you know like not everybody has an s2000 cluster in an ek....
just wanting to try something unique

 

quite a few people do.

check out the cluster swap thread or search for people who have swapped in an s200 cluster.
