is it possible to install one in a 02-03 wrx or is it really hard?? I found one 4 350.00.

02-04 swap, 05-06 swap
02-04 swap, 05-06 swap

I have a 05 cluster in mine but its a WRX one and it was a 5 min work the only thing is that the ABS light does not work!

i believe not co'z he said WRX one not STI. and if your planning to do a swap get the one out of an 04 sti.you only need to cut one wire do a search about it or go here [url]www.scoobymods.com[/url] been there done that and im happy with it.

2005 will fit. youll just have alot of warning lights on (DCCD, ABS, one more i forget.. i have it in my car which is an 02 wagon. the 04 is much more straightforward.
| Go_Rex_Go | 08-02-2006 12:52 PM |

when u install the STI cluster into a wrx and start it up...do the gauge needles initialize (move) just like on the STI?
Also what year sti cluster is compatable with 06 wrx tr? Im gathering that only 2005/2006 is compatable or am i wrong?

05 WILL NOT WORK, THE CONNECTORS ARE NOT THE SAME.
I hate to pull the seniority card, but I know my isht in this department.. do not buy an 05 cluster for an 02 WRX!! - you will regret it.

^^ hey brainiac. I have it in my car.. and seniority card? look at my member number what are you trying to pull? IT plugs in, you have to shave off portions of one of the plugs, and rewire a little, but it works.
There is a MAJOR thread about this somewhere i can't find it right now as im at work.

It will not work. I have tried it and failed. The connectors behind the fuel/temp gauge has a extra pin. The shift beep will be on all the time as well.

Foudn this info in a quick search in electrical and lighting.. im sure you could find more info there but this tis what i did.
1st, with the size dilemma on the plug, I just shaved the small plastic "slider" off, and it plugged right in with no problems........
2nd, I cut and taped off the dimmer wire from the factory harness (orange/white).
3rd, plugged everything in.....and TADA.... no problems what so ever!! Which doesn't effect anything, not my gauges, hvac or stereo. of course i can't dim the sti gauges, but that's fine.
Now, all you have to do is conceal the the sti lights (dccd, read diff, and abs)
OK? stop saying it doesnt work. because it does.

Eslanto.. by senority I meant how much I know about swapping the gauge clusters in WRXs.. I've done 05-03, 03-04, 04-02, 04-06, give me a pair of needlenose pliers, some electrical tape and any gauge cluster, and I'll make it work. Some people don't like shaving/rewiring $500 pieces of equipment - and if you don't know what you are doing I would NOT suggest trying it. As for the STi cluster's warning lights.. DCCD, outside temp, rear diff temp, I got them to turn off.. how 'bout you mr. smarty pants??? :lol:
OMG my member number is higher then yours!! I signed up later than you, so I obviously know so much less :( :lol:
to the OP:
Be safe and buy an '04 cluster.. it is plug and play except for the fact that you have to cut one wire - don't even have to attach it to anything, just cut it.
You can listen to me, and have an 04 cluster that is plug and play, or you can listen to him and get yourself into a wiring/dremeling mess.
Besides - '04s are cheaper than '06s

Cut the yellow wire with green stripes on the middle plug.
That's all you need to know, the rest is plug and play replacement

Find the right wires, add resistors :p
