Clusters compatible with EW?

RouletteRoulette Band Wagon

Firstly, if this is the wrong section I apologize!

I'm in need of a new speedometer since my needle is stuck somehow and is snapping cables. I've already put a new cable in but obviously before I reconnect it to anything I want a new speedometer that won't snap it. The most logical solution is to just replace the entire instrument cluster in the car, but finding a specific 1986 Honda Civic Wagon cluster for under $180 (was the cheapest at a junkyard within 100 miles of here, Austin) has proven to be difficult.

My question is, are any other instrument clusters compatible with this vehicle? For example, what about this one that pops up on eBay from time to time?

or this one?

Is there a list somewhere that says which ones are interchangeable?



Thanks!

    Aren't you the one I picked up the wagon cluster for some months ago. You flaked out on me after I went and pulled one for you at the junkyard. $40 shipped right or something around that price....

    I didn't "flake out", I emailed back that at the time I didn't have the money. :( I ended up having to rebuild the alternator and battery, which you can see in other threads I posted around the same time that I was having starting issues. That kind of ate up all the extra money I had laying around. Sorry if you feel cheated somehow. Also, if I remember correctly the one you pulled was kind of scratched up....

    No worries. :D I don't have it anymore, actually sent it over to another EW(?) wagon owner in Germany. $180 is too much to pay, I think I payed $35 for the one I found locally. I'll see if I can find another one but parts are getting rare for your year wagon. I would think sedan/hatch/crx the same year would work but I'm not quite sure.

    I just get evols cluster *g* Now I'll modify it, that it works in an EDM-Shuttle... If it work, you can have my EDM-cluster and I modified it for USDM-use. Would be some work, but it's possible I think.
    If it's ready we can speak about the price [~$50 + shipping?]
