I doubt it. The only cluster as far as i know, that will work on the cl, is the 94-97 accord.

I hope I'm misreading this, but you think that by changing your gauges your car will redline at a higher rpm?

hahahahahhaahhaahhahahaahah

your engine will blow up so fast if it could go beyond 7000....ahahahaha

unless you get an actual prelude motor, the gauges are pretty useless....unless you just wanna show off that you have a 200hp (3.0) that can hit 8000 RPM

when I read your post, I thought you were going to swap in the h22... I think the guys are just giving you shit for no reason. anyway I think it fits because people get the front clips and switch in everything... that way you know the mileage of the engine too right?

That's actually a good idea, i never thought of that. If the lude cluster fits, do it. I have never seen it done to a CL before

What you would have to do is take apart the Quelude cluster and pullout the actual guages then instal them in your CL cluster housing. I just dont know how you would wire the lighted needles. The cluster sizes should be the same though.

u don't need the lighted needles... just put the needles in unlighted... the CL needles are not lighted so ... you'll be able to see them fine... or you could just wire them to some power source with a resistor... would work the same as indiglos I would assume.
