Heres a little snippet into my dash conversion S2000 dials/speedo/clusterinto my EK9.
After some research i decided i probably could pull this off, a few concerns were:
Would the speedo and revs read properly?
Would the trip computer work?
Fuel and Temp levels, would these be reliable?
Also would my shift light still work on them thats prog through my Hondata
I tried to source a good set of clocks, there was 2 versions
AP1 or AP2 the earlier AP1 version has a larger rev counter and can be reprogrammed to any mileage
The layout was also different on these and in my opinion the AP1 cluster looks better.
The clocks were fetching circa £150 -£200 with an extra £25-100 for the connectors on the rear or the full interior loom. I need approx 6 inch of loom from the rear of the dials to make all the necessary connections.
SUCCESS ...... I managed to get hold of a set for £100 delivered with the all import loom on them).gif ":)) :))")
Next came the conversion module, the little black box to make it all work, this box would make the revs, speedo, fuel and temp gauges read properly, fortunately i got hold of a lad that makes them and he sent me one out , along with a bit of a wiring diagram to connect them up. Although this was missing a few wires and the colours and positions were incorrect, a little online research and also the use of my multimeter i worked out how it should go.
A saturday afternoon passed and the dials where working, although the speedo was reading incorrectly, an hours puzzling passed and i realised in may have something to do with the speedo conversion chip on the gearbox. I switched the dials to kph and magically they began reading in MPH correctly, (i needed to remove the chip)
Pic of them in rough and testing
