Pm'd you about you needing ITR shocks and springs

 

Where'd you guys find these bulbs?

 

autozone

 

Good to heared I don't have to put the blue condom with the new amber bulb

 

i did this in my gsr cluster, got em at NAPA

 

god amber is so ugly, i would rather have blue or white.

red is also nice!

 

If you guys want the JDM ITR look, get the amber bulbs from autozone, and then get a red sharpie and put two or three coats on it...makes for some JDM red/amber goodness

 

Is there a DA version for this? BUMP IT UP!

 

Cool little write-up

I think I might do this when I find some free time. Is the JDM ITR cluster's lighting different then the USDM's? Is it possible to change the lighting of the headunit?

 

that actully looks raw

Using the colored bulbs is the ghetto way to do this. I can show you the true way to make your DA cluster look OEM, where the gauges light up amber but the odometer and trip meter are still lit up with white light. Simply changing the color of the bulbs look nothing like OEM. OEM gauges are orange and not amber.

Here is what mine looks like:




Notice in the second pic the odometer and trip meter are not lit up orange Also, you can see how it exactly matches the OEM color of my 00 Civic Si CD player.

 

hahaah i did my cluster like 3 months ago..been to lazy to do the rest tho

 

Did you take that last picture on purpose at that time? lol

HMMMMMMMMM....now that i think about it, do I really want everyone to have a nice OEM looking cluster like mine

I'll try to see if I have my old cluster so I can take pics to outline the process. Without pics, it would be near impossible to explain. It's a really time consuming and difficult process, and I had my old LS cluster to practice on. One mistake and your gauge cluster could be toast. The proces involves manipulating the gauge itself, and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH CHANGING THE COLOR OF THE BULBS.

If I try to explain it in words and no pics, you guys will end up with fuel and temp gauges that don't work right

EDIT: I really only want to show DA owners how to do this because there are no "amber" clusters available for the DA Integra. DC Integra owners need to buy ITR clusters if they want this look. Stop being cheap

as much as we appreciate it, no where does it state you have to share your secrets homie

 

Is there anyway to make them blue or a different color other than amber?

 

i just did mines after reading that write up lol looks better
