Gauge cluster for 91 dx

[Dx18704]

I know use the search option i did and didnt find what i was really lookin for so anyway.......i have a automatic 91 dx and i want the rpm tach but i dont wanna buy a individual one......i was wondering which ones that will just plug n play for me and if they have the indilgo ones also.......also one more question how do i fix the mileage gauge on the cluster to read how many miles our on the car??? does it go automaticly or something

Okay, any 90-91 cluster will fit that has a tach on it.... it can be from a Civic Si, EX, or LX and i believe all Crx's came with a tach.... but since you have a 91 civic, it has to be from a 90-91 model civic or crx, it can't be from a 88-89 because they are shaped differently and its just a huge hassle to get it to fit!

i am thinkin about getin an rpm tach after saying i dont want one lol i dont know which would be easier and if i was to get the rpm tach what would i hook it up to?

[MyFirst4G]

if you get an external tach you would have to run wires to your distributor..... not worth the hassle, just get a Si cluster for under 45 bucks off eBay or just go to your local junkyard, they will have em!

You should be able to undo the screws, holding your mileage ticker, and swap them out.

88-89's are not plug and play.

Also, since you have a auto, you need to find a auto EX cluster, that way you will keep your gear indicators. Unless you dont care about those.

or you can just take a needle and move the numbers back, thats what i did when i had my DX.... and screw the indicators, its not necessary..... just look down...

I agree, get a 90-91 cluster, you can fit a 88-89, but its a big hassle to wire it up and there is a gap on the top. the 90-91 is plug-n-play so its easy

Now for the switching your odometers, i have a how-to on my website on how to do this, because this is what I did. the link should be in my signature.

dude...get an external tach ...I have a 5" autmeter phantom tach with shiftlite...I love it....1 wire to the dizzy...then power,ground and lighting......gauges are cool...plus I have phantom a/f gauge and a phantom boost gauge......phantam aka white face...boost gauge is lame though...I don't have a turbo...I'm gonna get a nos pressure gauge for my zex kit....sooner or later..

[MyFirst4G]

just take a pin and move the odometer back........ thats what i did!

[Skeme1]

how with a pin do you roll the odometer back?
