Default 6th gen gauge cluster in 5th gen........

I'm about to get my hands on a uk spec type r gauge cluster. Looks to be near the same size as a 5th gen cluster,now comes the wiring. Does anyone know if the plugs are the same on the different gens?Also does anyone have a wiring diagram for the 5th and 6th gen clusters.

I've got the 6th gen Helms, not sure it it transfers to the UK model though.

I'll be glad to help you if I can as soon as my new monitor for my home PC gets here. my old one **** the bed so i can't really use my home pc

Are you 100% certain its legit? the speedo is in MPH, not KPH

that looks like an Accord Euro R cluster
I've never seen a Civic with a digital odometer

Ok I got the cluster today. Theres some good news and bad news. Bad news first. I pull it out of the box and there's a nice crack in the clear housing. Ok good news. The plugs are surprzingly the same ones as the 5th gen Hooked it up to see if it was all good. Nope. Needs to be rewired. Anyhow thats where i stand on my project.

P.S. If anyone has a gauge cluster wiring diagram for the 6th gen accord or 5th gen accord could you please send it to me GMO314@sbcglobal.net Thanks.
