If I buy a used instrument cluster,does anybody know if its possible to get the mileage changed on them? Something that would also bother me if i have 139,xxx miles on the car but cluster only shows 100,xxx or something.So I would need it to reflect the cars actual millage and not the used car it came from.

Or would it be easier to buy the OEM replacement faces with needles from honda and change them out?
Tachometer assembly-$63.03
Fuel/temp assebmly-$51.60

Reasons;
the glue from ebay glow gauge cover took off alot of black on oem face,looks really bad*just imperfection
Broke the temp gauge due to the ebay glow gauge cover.

You can swap out just the gauges from another cluster... that way your mileage/etc. stay the same.

just buy the cluster from a car with the same engine as yours (4cyl gauges are 3 separate pieces and 6cyl gauges is in one piece) and swap the gauges, you can still keep your mileage cuz ur still using your original cluster's computer board

Yep, I agree with what's been said. It's tough finding MT gauges though...I think I threw away my spare pieces already, but I'll check tomorrow.

I have a spare cluster at home - but it's spare because I swapped out the cluster in my car since the gauges had glue on them from the previous owner's indiglo... functions perfectly... but if anyone wants it for parts - lmk... (PM for price)
