7th gen gauge cluster swap
- Thread starter 2k5civic
- Start date
i'm not too familiar with 7th gens... so someone else might give you more detailed info... but i think that if you do swap, the milage would be messed up at the very least. since the 7th gen odometers are not mechanical, you cant manipulate them like u could older civics.
think so .? u think i can adjusted the milage to be exact with what i have current in my car. im also thinking that the swap will be direct . i mean yea the only problem would be mileage . anyone else's inouts are welcome .!
I'm gonna say it wouldn't physically fit. The 7th gen clusters are taller then 6th gen
you would have to look at the two of them side by side to be able to tell, as far as mileage goes just get an Si cluster with more mileage than your car and wait until you hit the right mileage to put it in and take pictures of both clusters together at the time of the installation
thats a good idea... never crossed my mind.FerioSpeed said:
if you're not worried about the milage matching, or you can do what FerioSpeed suggested above, i would think it should work. but i cannot say for certain as i have not had experience with 7th gen clusters. sorry.
im breaking into a honda dealrship and taking that bish out of there!!! haha
nah my boy he wrecked his 2001 si.. totaled. even the engine is a disaster! some dood hit him straight on ina old dodge pickup truck ..drunk ass hell.. well yall know old dodges.. pure metal!!

2001 si ? Never ever offered in us.2k5civic said:
99-00 si = 6th gen.
02+ si = 7thgen.
Gauge cluster size is different, wiring hareness should be similar.
You can do it, but not worth it imo.
Stock gauge cluster is good, why change it.
yea that was a typo.. i ment 03 si.. but yea youz guyz are right.. i thought maybe sumpn coll could be done like a gauge cluster swap.. haha ima fool. but yea our gauges are dope. i left em .. hey .. i have a question ..
the 2006 si coupe coming out.. i read it in a magazine in i think honda tuning and they said that this car is the 6th generation si.. ! hm.??? i would of thought id be part of the new line up for the 8th generation civic.... am i right or wrong.? feedback .

well.. i beleive that it could be the 6th gen SI... meaing it is teh sixth different model of civic si... despite the civic itself being in ints 8th gen. that make sense?
however i dont know the validity of this, cuz i dont really know much abotu civics older than the 5th gens. but my explanatino would at least make sense. it does in my head at least, lol.

it works, but it doens't fit right. you need special parts for it to fit. Cna't remember what. But my teammate did it on his 04, looks sick, but doesn't fit right at all.
I was wondering the same thing only diff is I want to swap an 05 sedan cluster into my 01 coupe. It's the same general sizing, I know the milage will be off, but would the cluster itself fit?
