i believe there has to be some for manual, as they are for foreign usdm sc's, and im pretty darn sure, the manuals arent all in the us lol. i always wanted one of these too. with enough work and electical smarts, im sure it can be done. and hopefully shared if you find any info, let us know!

Do you really want blinking dash displays and parts not to display at the worst possible times? Its only really nice when it works...when it wants to.

If I could be bothered to figure out how to make a US display work in a soarer I'd do that.

The digital display gets old when you have to warm your car up for the winter and you can't tell how much gas or if its warmed up enough cause that part of the display doesn't work. Or how fast your going cause the speed and tach stopped working... I could go on.

Just be glad you have a US display.

I think you are the only person I've ever heard of getting the cluster to work. Happen to have any pics???

Just out of curiosity, I was wondering if someone had pics of it not functioning.

it's a clean cluster, but should you find one or figure out how to get it to work-it's going to cost you a arm and leg should something break digital wise...but hey, keep us informed...something to think about?
