Thanks for the link. Do you, or someone else, know if that will fit on a 1997 CL 2.2 5 speed?

Not sure, but look at the picks when on the auction and see if they match yours. I don't think there's a difference between the 2.2 and the 3.0, but not sure about the manual and the auto.

I'm assuming by cluster you mean set? Anyhow, thanks for the info. btw, how well does it match up with the interior lighting? meaning like the lights in the center console.

I have only driven my CL once so far, back from new york where I bought it. I forget what color the lights were

The ride looks nice you can drop that with a eibach pro kit 1.5" and with your thick tires you won't pop a tire or rim unless you hit it flying..

looks good..drop that shit
like platano said u have pretty thick tires so bumps shouldnt really be a problem.
go with the 1.5inch drop w/ the pro-kit and youll be straight.
I have a sportline drop(lower than pro-kit)and 215/40/18 tires and do you hav any idea what the roads are like in NY?

The 5spd needs 5spd guages otherwise you'll have D,N,R,D4,D3,2,1 going down the center of it.

Also the 97's need the 94-95 Accord ones because the 96-97 Accords are different.

I'm saying the auto and manual are different in that the auto's have the gear indicator going down the center. Also 97 CL's need 94/95 Accord guages and 98099 CL's need 96-97 Accord guages.

Jeez, I feel like I'm speakin' Chinese today!

mine isn't lowered 4 now maybe this summer depend on $.

For place in mtl to buy suspension, check for : Laser Auto / RMR / Docteur du pare-brise ; to name a few.

pm me back if you want more info.
It's good to see a nice car like yours near me
