RSX Base Gauges in civic?

I searched but i really found nothing. i want to put the rsx base gauge cluster into my 02 ex coupe. if i were to do this, is the wiring different? what would i need to do it? is it even possible? if anyone has this done or knows anything about it, please let me know.

cluster is a different shape. Plugs are gonna be different. you could do it if you were real good with precision cutting, but it would involved cutting the guages out of the rsx cluster and fabbing them into the civic one. Not an easy task by any means.

I dont know about installation, but I believe that the mileage will NOT carry over. You would need to get a DMV sticker stating the vehicle's original mileage compared to the mileage of the new cluster. Totally not worth it - just get some reverse indiglos or something if you must do something with your instrumentation.

Rumor has it that there are some speed shops and the dealership can reset the mileage in a new cluster. I haven't looked into it though. I'd check around.
