anyone sucessfully fit the rsx gauge in 7thgen?

i did a search and found alot of talk about the topic but nothing
about it actually being done.....has anyone attempted it
or done it with success? those reverse indiglo imo suck because they
dont fully cover the black part around the needle...i know that is why
they are easy to install but id rather it look better and take some time
than do it in 10 minutes and look like crap

no attempts because there is a high chance, they are not compatible. The rpms and top speed are off, off the bat. You'd probably have to do some rewiring while you're at it, to get the Civic plugs to fit in the cluster's sockets. And then some reprogramming to make it run at the Civic level.

Just invest in the 2003 clusters. They look awesome!

The description at SoundDomain says 2".
I emailed them and they said:

Greetings from SoundDomain.com -That gauge bezel will house only 2"
gauges. Please contact us again if you have any other questions or
concerns.

So I've gotta know from someone who actually has them...do they fit?
