It's pretty easy to install, just get an ek cluster w/ a tach. I know ex and hx have a tach, but thats all I'm sure about.

The HX, LX, EX, and Si all have tachometers. The cluster you use should depend on what engine you have if you care to have the correct redline.

consider yourself a lucky one....

on all dx models a tachometer is not standard, regardless of the car being an auto or manual....

i had to upgrade
99 dx y0!!

is not hard at all... all you need is maybe $150 to buy an si cluster... and a phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws that hold the cluster in and then you unplug all the wiring... then put the other cluster in its place... direct swap among eks
