- Tue May 05, 2009 4:10 am #114944 I think all civics are pre-wired for clusters with tachs, but ask around to make sure.. My 96 Cx doesn't have a tach as well so I grabbed a cluster with a tach and it's plug and play.

your correct i think the 88-91 dose have a wire for the tach but definately the 92-00's are all prewired for the tach and all will have that blue wire behind the cluster
