just an opinion.. but have you considered mounting the tach in the middle, on the steering wheel plastic covering

the only reason ^^ he mounted his in the middle is because the tach and the spedometer are on the left and right.. why would he mount his in the middle if hed cover both of those..?

anyways great job dude.. you mounted it in the right spot.. ha.. why dont you have a tach though?

Honda is so f'ing cheap about some things... like it would kill their profits to put a tach in the DX...

Anyway, I would've swapped out the cluster, but that's me. I also would've never put an AEM sticker (or any other sticker) over my cluster and, specifically, my odometer. Nice tach though.

And what's that light above your seatbelt light?

I know this, it was just an opinion... I dont think you would block anything having it in the middle... its not a 5" tach and IMO it would look cleaner

but hey! to each his own.. it looks good either way!

I saw this tach and i thought the b!tch looked clean...Black with a red shift lite...flows with the whole theme...Didnt want to swap the whole cluster honestly because i havent been able to find one...and the light above my seat belt light is the SRS light i think...came on after i gutted the whole car (just from the passenger seat plug) and it didnt go off since then...even after putting the car back together...

You can have that SRS light reset at the dealership. It'll only take them like 15 minutes to do it.

I assume you meant "how much does it cost". They didn't charge me a thing.

with the pic it looks like it's in the middle of gas and temp, but it's not, and i have it to keep an eye on gas mileage. see what rpm i'm at and such.
