You could swap for the IS-F gauge cluster. Other than that, I don't know of any aftermarket gauges.

fyi, the side airbags are mounted inside the A pillar.

that means if/when they deploy, expect that gauge pillar pod to go flying somewhere, and there is a chance that it will be your face that will stop their forward momentum.

That's too tacky. If you do it, you're officially a honda driver.

i've heard that it's not only expensive, but also not quite plug-and-play.

there's only one 2is owner that i know of that has done this. maybe he can confirm this?...

The IS-F gauge cluster was plug and play on my IS350. Then I sold it to Javy. The only problem is the oil temp doesn't work on it. Also, the mileage is stored in the cluster and not on the car's ECU.

Me? Or the OP?

If its to me then no, this is my 3rd car. I had an accord, rsx-s, now this.
I didnt think it was a dumb question though because I had an auto accord and a MT guage cluster worked in it. I put a MT cluster in it because I was experimenting with LEDs and didnt want to mess up the original one.
