Re: 6th gen cluster in a 7th gen?

so with this one below from ebay its from a 01-03 EX. Would the plugs just be "Plug-N-Play"??? so i could see some RPMS =P

Re: Cluster swap questions

IIRC the DX is already wired for a tach, so it should be plug-and-play. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, this has likely been covered many times before, but I didn't feel like Searching for it. Feel free to look.

Re: Cluster swap questions

If your going from a DX to a EX cluster, then your going to have to depin and re order the wiring the the green and blue plugs.
All the wires are there , just in the wrong order, if you plug it in and expect it to work think again, you'll likely short something out.
