the GSR cluster into your car is not a plug and play mod,..you have to re pin the harness,...if you ask your friend he should tell you the same thing,...you have to solder alot,..i forgot where to find the conversion chart for the repinning,...i got it done in my 96 hatch

you can find the wiring diagram on jdmfan.com the site is down atm, but a google cache of it is at http://216.239.33.100/search?q=cache...hl=en&ie=UTF-8 i plan on doing it with my car (have the cluster), just gotta get the plugs first. i'm not gonna solder anything, just hook the wires up. a lot easier i think.

now, if you're talking about it not physically fitting, Paul has done it, so you might be about to ask him. but i think it's just a matter of finidng the right spot for it, and maybe cutting something to make room. i don't think it'll ever completely fit in an eg though.

for a 5g civic it takes mad wiring, u cant just repin it unless u have a 6g civic. u have to get the integra harness and solder it to the civic wires. i did it and it was worth it. as far as fittin, i kept the gsr plastic on there, just trim the cluster a bit and then folded the plastic bakk to make it fit. then i zip tie em to the car. looks clean to me. there is just a small gap on the bottom but u cant c it unless u lean over. ill post pics soon.

well, i just figured that if there were wires still part of the teg plugs, you could hook those wires up to the wires in my car. i suppose it would be better to solder, but this would be a good way to atleast find out if it all works without having to solder.

of course u want to tap into the wires first before solderin. took me 30 min to tap into all the wires, then everything check out kewl, time to solder, not as hard as many may think. looks kewl to me, huge size tach and speedo, red needles, 9.5 redline, and the coolness factor.
