Default black & red gauges?

so I've been seeing a few pics floating around of all black gauges/gauge cluster with red numbers... can someone tell me what these are gauges are from and if you can put them in a 92-95 sedan? I'm trying to find gauges with a lot of black and only one color for the numbers ect

any help is appreciated

Find those pictures, and post them up here for more help. I don't think anyone wants to play a guessing game since they are a few different types of OEM gauges that match your description.

Looks like you got the picture from this thread on ClubCivic.

By description from seller, it is a 96-00 Civic VTI gauge cluster offered in UKDM Civics.

Kinda pricey IMO. This will not plug and play in your 92-95. Additional wiring and custom mounting would be required. Not worth it IMO. If you are going to go through all that trouble, I would look at an AP1 or AP2 S2000 cluster. Shweeet!

yeahhh a bit pricey which was why I was asking for somewhere else. I haven't found too many gauge face plates that I like yet.. I want something simple with just like 2 colors you know? guess I'll keep looking around

I have seen many people take a stock 92-95 EX cluster (since those are slightly more desirable than the non-EX ones), pop off the clear plastic on the front (just a few clips that need to be pushed in while slightly pulling on the plastic), and "color" the white needles/numbers/hash marks red with a deco marker.

Check out something like that, I googled it and found some info on them. Search around on forums to see what others used as well. You should be able to do the entire project for well under $100, and you can say it is custom
