I know it is possible to light up the dash. I should have a kit to do it in a month or so.
As far as the gauge cluster, I do not know. I usually recommend getting aftermarket gauges.
You can read about the 98-02 Accord's gauge cluster if you go to my website and click the how-to guides button. The very last thing will be a guide about all the trials and troubles I had with my gauge cluster.
