regarding a new gauge cluster...

i have a 2000 honda civic ex sedan automatic

my gauges are shot as in the whole cluster..i need a whole new one...

my question is is there any way for me to get si version's? actually probably not huh?


i think i jus answerd my own questions..

i pretty much have to buy the same exact gauge cluster as the one currently in there....


well since i wrote this out already and came all the way to the library for this specific purpose, i might as well post right?!! gully

let me know...

You should be able to use a SI cluster but the redline on the tach would be wrong. :2cents:

as i sed i have a 2000 civic ex sedan automatic, how do i find out if i have vtec on it? if its single head or whatever else there is? i assume double head?

here's what i found out for gauges...

1. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7954863029&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT <<<---- but if you looke in item description it says "CIVIC 99-00 head only, Sdn (4 Dr)" waht does that mean?

2. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7955258562&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT <-- this one seems to be made for me right? but it says vtec on it...

also i don't understand why #1 is $100 and #2 is only $50...the only difference i see is about 20k miles?

any thoughts or info?

also anyone else know any other good web sites besides ebay for gauge clusters?


let me know

thanks

p.s. already tried u fix it dot com...no luck... and car parts dot come no luck either....

ANY cluster from a 96-00 will fit. theyre different prices because its ebay, and they can do that. they will both work.

also if i already purchased the el s7 gauges i probably couldn't use the si cluster huh? it wouldn't work right over right?

why would it be wrong?




Because the SI redlines higher than the EX.

u have a single cam "head" as u call it, and you have vtec.
you want to be cool? there are spare spots on ur cluster, cuz honda is crazy, and peeople have made vtec indicator lights to fit in one of those slots

i don't even understand what your last sentence was about? as in what do you mean by vtec lights?

if you followed my links "head" is not waht i call them but that the seller of these guages, says as in 2000 gauge cluster (head only) <<-- i didn't know what he meant by that..

and furthermore are you sure i have a vtec ie. how do u know this/ where in my manual do i find this?

thanks
