wondering who else has done this and what has to be done in order for it to work. I have mine in a box right now and I really want to put it in tomorrow

Actually, I thought that would be a really cool mod, where'd you pick up the STi gauge cluster?

Just got to clip one wire in the middle harness. i forget which one. i'll look and see if i still have the page bookmarked. other than that it works great. the dccd light stays on all the time and so does the rear diff temp. light.
oh yeah and it looks like my out side temp sensor works..... but i don't have one adn it's never even close to the right temp. i don't know where it's getting it's signal from. but at least it looks like it works :D

1) Installing a new cluster WILL change your odometer reading. THis has a lot of warrenty and legal implications. Be careful.

2) Is it REALLY so hard to spell your rather than 'ur'?

that is the way i type, is it really that much harder to read and understand 'ur' rather than 'your'? and yes it is easyer to type ur rather than your as it takes two less keys to type, jeeze why did u make me have to type up this long ass response :furious: :lol:

lmao that it looks like some cheap ass wheel cover sold at pep boys or somthing lol i thought it looked kinda ricey. i do like the blue though. but i seriosly love the leather wrapped momo as it is. its the only damn piece of leather in my car! i'm sorry but i seriosly would have prefered if the 05 wrx came with leather.

The sti cluster is fine. To turn those lights off you can also put electric tape behind the cluster. The bulbs are all LEDs and and the gauges use electroilluminescense <sp> which is the same thing the indigo watches use from my understanding.

There is also a thread talking about the temp gauge which gives you the wires to turn off these lights and how to wire the temp gauge.
