My guess is that's a big no dice.

But at the same time, if you find out that it DOES mount in, let us know, as then I'd buy one too.

god that'd annoy the piss out of me. how come everyone wants to be so JDM? i would rather drive the on the same side of the car as everyone else in america, and i would rather read miles per hour rather than kilometers per hour just like everyone else in america. im not saying your going RHD but the cluster WAS meant for that, so its probobly not going to work. im just talking about everyones deal with needing to be JDM.-but really im just saying that KM/H would get on my nerves. you'd have to do calculations converting km/h to mph every time the speed limit changes, and what are you going to say to the cop if you get pulled over? ticket for illegal gauges right there. (it happens trust me)

No, its not worth it. Stick with your USDM unTyTE guages and save yourself the headache.

I bought my car and it was imported from canada and its in KPH... do you see me complaining no... anyways... mph is in smaller numbers underneath KpH... you should try being quiet... might make you look smarter :-D... I would say go for it man... they are nice and was thinking about doing it myself with a few minor modifications to the dash and harness.. but i instead bought a HUDS

I really like that gauge cluster. The best thing about it is that the rpms are smack dab in the middle.

SO since it won't work, what if we redesigned our own to mimic the S15s?

It would even have the proper MPH on there so conversions would be needed !!!!!!

you have to be like...15 if you honestly got so worked up over this that you made a sign, and took pictures just to be as amazingly cool as you are....anyways yeah everyone knows 100 kph is approx 60 mph. now just off the top of your head driving try and figure out what say.... 35 is. THAT'S what i was saying would be annoying. -oh please do get over your problems, shi't you people get uptight easily.
