Don't think there is one on this on here so I thought I'd share this. I had this fitted into my EJ9 but I'm guessing the wiring would be the same as an EK4 as the previous owner of the cluster had this in his Jordan.
what you need:
-screw driver
-soldering iron
-scissors
Hond-R Vehicle Speed Sensor Delimter / JDM Converter | O2 Simulators And Delimiters | Hond-R
You can probably get it cheaper than £70 but this is the exact same one. It has definitely changed to MPH but I'm not sure about the 112mph limiter being removed though.
First wrap the Black and Red wires round these two screws as shown (black - left, red - right). Loosen the screws a bit, hook the wire onto them and tighten it up
Next up is you would obviously want to remove your old cluster. Disconnect the battery. Remove the plastic surround (two screws at the top holds it in)
Then there are four screws that hold the cluster onto the bracket. unscrew them and find 2 blue connectors, one orange and one yellow. Disconnect all plugs and you will be modifying the larger blue plug that was originally connected to the top.
It is the 5th cable from the left which is striped blue and white (the one I'm lifting with my thumb)
What you need to do next is cut this blue/ white wire and solder the grey and yellow wires in between. So after cutting it you need to strip a bit of the wire skin off then solder the grey one with the end that is connected to the blue plug. The soldering can be quite tricky to keep the wires together so probably best to get someone to hold the two wires together and also not easy to work behind a steering wheel (unless yours is a snap off like mines)
then the yellow one to the one that goes with the rest of the looms
so when you're finished should look like this
new dials installed and looking much better than the misty ej one I had before
A slight issue I have just now is I don't have an airbag and my civic is non-abs so the SRS light and ABS
Basically the plugs at the back:
Orange - ABS
Yellow - SRS
So if you have no airbag or ABS don't plug these in. I will be unplugging mines. Hope this was helpful
