Question any cluster mods?????

NExt thing on my agenda, I absolutely hate my cluster after seeing the new types that come in accords and such with the LEDs in the needles and all the numbers are individually illuminated In Love . I bought a replacement face plate for mine which is white with red writing, it kinda tuff but it still boring. Its the lighting that is the real problem!!!

ANY IDEAS???

Re: any cluster mods?????

i've replaced the lights on top to amber LEDs and matched my climate control with amber LEDs as well.


i noticed that the needles don't move light through them like my Nissan, but rather, reflect from those 2 bulbs overhead. i did have to remove that blue film to have the amber LEDs shine through better.

Hey man, i have a 96 civic EK model. It should b sweet, most mods from 96 to 00 are the same. if unsure just send them an email, I live in Australia, so had to check alot to make sure it would work with my model

actually bought my set of ebay, didnt go through that website..but still shipping from America.
