Guage Cluster Same as ACCOrd?

Anyone know if the accord gauge clusters will fit our cars? I know they are identical except for the fact that our numbers look much bigger. Anyone know? Im going auto to 5spd but 5 spd clusters are harder to find for CL's. THanks

they do fit, just the mounts are in different places... it can be made to fit very easily though, the bottom screws line up ok, its just the top 2 that are in different places.


removing a few bulbs in the cluster and changing the trim is easier. The only real difference is the fact that the auto has that strip in the middle to show the gear position, and the manual does not.

email me if you need more info, I may have those parts you would need laying around.

Are you talking about just taking out the bulbs ffor that auto strip, and then replacing the trim with a manual one? Is is pretty easy?

What about the cluster that fits on the front piece of the car (holds egt, air/fuel etc) will a 97 accord fit a 97 cl?

The autometer (for example) pods that mount on the pillar? Yes, the 94-97 accord ones fit.

Yes, just take those bulbs out and replace the trim with the trim from a manual tranny cluster (to get rid of the PRND4D321). If you like the aluminum or carbon fiber trim pieces that go over the stock trim, you can just get one of those for a manual tranny car and cover the auto tranny trim piece.
