i know this isnt plug and play. i rewire it to the same color as the si but some color dont have it. my rpm gauge dont work my mph and fuel works. NEED HELP WIRING!!!!!!

what did you rewire ?

Couple people have told me it was plug and play

i took a crx si cluster (not sure what year exactly) and put it in my 89 civic dx and so far so good. it was just plug and play (10min job, most of the time looking for the damn screws to unscrew )

print or copy that link, go to your car, and make sure it all goes where it should.

 

it work! how come when i open the door it doesnt show the guy with the seat belt????

 

if it's not working properly, you've got a 90-91 cluster or a broken one. you've got an 89 so by moving wires make you're 89 plug configuration match the 90-91 plug configuration. you don't have to cut wires . use a needle or safety pin to move the plastic piece inside each plug to slide wires out. do them one at a time , there are six wires that have to be cut and moved to the other plug. follow that link.

Would this be the same if you put a 88si cluster in a 89dx.

 

if its the same year, then its plug and play. I have an 88 Si cluster available if anyone wants it...$50

 

My buddy owns a 89 Civic DX, it's 5 speed. He wants to use the 88-91 CRX Gauge cluster can it be done??

 

As long as its a 88-89 si cluster it should work fine....

 

the only time wiring changes need to be made are when swapping a88-89 w/a 90-91 or vice versa.
