ok since no one else had the sense to ask.... I'll do it

why in the world do you want a JDM cluster? what exactly do you think a JDM cluster does differently from your cluster?

^To each his own, I guess.
I'd get some nice 15"-16" rims first and then go from there. From the ground up.
Welcome to the Civic world! With the money you save on gas, you'll have that puppy done in no time lol.

i'm not gonna stop him from getting the cluster, nor am i gonna make fun of him. but i'd just LOVE to know what is so great about a JDM cluster that he'd wanna make it his first mod. maybe i've missed something and should also add a jdm cluster to my xmas shopping list. they both have km/h, just that one lights up yellow, the other white. being an Si, he's already got a tach. this is a riddle beyond my skill level.

just a note... changing the cluster is risky stuff... if you sell it with the new cluster no one is going to believe you about the actual kilometers on the car, or worst case scenario you'll sell it and they will report the car/ cluster to Transport canada.

changing the cluster without informing them is an offence

make sure you know that
