I've got two gauge clusters here, one I know for a fact is from a 2004 RX8 MT. But the other one I am not to sure about. I think it might be from a newer year model or from a shinka because it has a chrome bezel on it and I know the shinkas come with chrome interior trim. They both work in my 2004 RX8 but I know the one with the chrome bezels is different because the CRUISE and low oil lights are different than the 2004 cluster. Anyone have any idea what year/model RX8 this is from? Check out pics below.


This one is from a 2004 RX8 MT. Notice how this cluster shows CRUISE MAIN and the LOW OIL light is below the coolant light?


Now this cluster is the one I can't figure out what year it came from. Notice how it just says CRUISE and how the LOW OIL light is below the cruise light? Also there is nothing under the coolant light on this cluster either.

 

japanese spec?

 

It looks like my 07

 

But I dont have the DSC light (or button0

 

the one above does not say mph on the speedo and has no odometer reading.

 

Aren't Japanese spec all RHD?
These images are of a LHD 8

 

the bottom is 2007 or 2008

 

Yeah never mind the odometer or the mph not being there. It's doing that because I have the odometer chip pulled out so that I can reprogram it when I sell the cluster. This way whoever buys the cluster will be able to match this cluster with the odometer reading on their car. So yeah don't take the mph and odometer being all dashes into consideration as that has nothing to do with it.

Well judging by what you and Phantom RX said it sounds like it must be a 2007. Funny thing is that it still works in my 2004 it's just that the lights are in different spots. I wonder though if I drive around with it in my car and I turn my cruise I wonder if the OIL LIGHT will come on seeing as how it's in the spot where the CRUISE light should be. On my 04 there is a CRUISE MAIN that comes on when you enable the cruise system and then there is a CRUISE light that comes on when the car is actually being controlled by the cruise control system.
