well this is in a 90 hatch.... only problem is every damn cluster I find that looks 99% like it doesn't fit. The stupid plastic crack is what I'm trying to find a replacement for, and its been a ****** and a 1/2.

And I've seen the 88-89 hatches and some look like this but then I think i've tried some and they don't fit. The angle is always off.


sorry for the ****in blurry picture...

the green light is a cruise control light, has belt/door/brake/check eng/i forget the rest.

I don't really know why they wouldnt fit. Ive never tried putting a 90-91 cluster in an 88-89 or vice versa, but every time I swapped clusters between the respective years i've never had a problem with fitment.

Side note. Now that I think of it I had a 90 CRX si with one of these clusters and I always wondered what the deal was. The cruise control was one of those ghetto *** little things mounted on the side of the steering column under the headlight switch. I always wondered if someone did this on their own, or if it was a dealer option. And if it was a dealer option, why didn't they put on a ex steering wheel with the stock clean cruise control buttons?

Sorry if this is derailing the thread, but now I'm kinda curious.

it's from a 90-91 when I had my hatch, I tried swapping in a 90 into my 89 and the brake light would come on when I would open the door, and when you pull the e brake, the check engine light would come on, so if you have a 88-89 you have to get 88-89 same with the 90-91, as for the cover if yours is a 90 as well you can just swap it over simple process

My hatch is a 90, but I cannot find a 90 hatch with same cover/cluster. Also people are saying that this isn't even from a hatch.


Can ANYONE post a picture and figure out what this cluster is please. What model/year it's from?

It doesn't have that same Tall Seat Belt icon though. Sorry about not posting earlier with a clearer picture, I just can't seem to get a better one with my phone.

The icon's are as follows (not specifically this order): Check engine, Oil, Brake, Seatbelt, Trunk, Battery, CRUISE CONTROL (lower left), and I'm forgetting one.

Anyone think its EDM? I've been looking around now and those look closest to mine. The SI CRX would be next closest but the EMERGENCY LIGHT/Light Dimmer is horizontal on those, and mine are all vertical on cluster hood.
