It's an auto cluster, but whatever. Paid $30 for it. Not too bad.
Only took me about 30 mins to swap the clusters. Best mod I've done so far! :thumb:
Gonna clean it up and make it look all pretty.

I just picked up two auto w/tach clusters at the junkyard myself and swapped one in since my fuel and temp gauge were shot. I'll post up a pic later, but I used a swapshopracing sticker and trimmed it, plus a honda decal from a newer key and hid it all, and put vinyl tape behind it to keep the light from shining through

- Sun May 11, 2014 1:55 am #345490 Here, so you can see what I did to hide it, and maybe it'll give you some ideas lol. I had to put vinyl tape behind it still, to keep the bulbs from shining through. If you haven't already, you can remove the big white box with two screws behind that part, since that's only used by the auto and doesn't affect anything.

Eh, it's not really a big deal for me, so I'll leave it for now, but that's always an idea for later! Thanks! :thumb:
