no, if you get an sir cluster, you just live with it. the conversions are easy to get used to. just remember 50mph=80kph. and keep record of the odo when you remove the current one, and the sir odo when you put it in so you can keep track of actual miles.

but it would still glow white instead of amber
. he would have to paint the bulb in order to keep the color. good luck tryin to match them up

Not if he used the jdm cluster with his speedo face and the jdm neddle. I'm talking about just the face plate .

the face plate is what makes it glow amber though. they have white bulbs. so if u changet he face plate to usdm one u change the color. i coiuld be wrong but im pretty sure its that way. cuz i took mine apart

the numbers would be WAY off you tried to use just the face. compare my two clusters, we we use an easy number like 100mph. notice how it is about level at 3oclock. with the sir cluster 100mph is about 160kph, which as you can see is a lot further down. if you get an sir cluster, you are not going to be able to mod it. live with it or dont get it. (imagestation sux, so if the pics dont show, click the x's and it should link you to the pics.
