i'm sure someone in here has it ;)
....all i can say its japan made, but it is not from the JDM ek4.

in terms of rarity or price the ek custer list goes like this

1) CTR cluster ( influx of this is all over ebay, price has been depreciating because of this too - the CTR craze, but many time for a penny or too less the followings in second place usually fetch a little less<-dumb sellers)

a tie in second place - either-or is the price and the rarity of it
2) JDM ek4 cluster (ask genesis for a pix)
2) the above cluster which you have posted:) -> i'm sure an intelligent guess will tell you where that cluster is from:)- i'll be glad to induge you if you are keen. (at many times you could even get it cheaper than the CTR cluster - just show how dumb they are)

4) ek spoonsports cluster (rarity and price goes out to this king of ek cluster)

other than that, this in recent time is what i kawtow to<laffz>
the ef spoonsports cluster <- should be inducted into the history of all civic cluster...

That dash is from the Canadian version of the EM1 coupe cos it's called the SiR over there. The US version is the same, but minus the 'R' - just the Si!

Righto! Canadian it is:) because of the geographical location of the 2 countries and the different system used. Thus a canadian vehicle equipped with dual system allows for usage between the two countries:)

Nope. The US doesn't have a SiR.

The US version 'Si' is just a red sticker.

As for the Canadian 'SiR', I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's just a sticker as well.

the SIR emblem come on JDM EK4.

does it buldge out? yes it does

how it looks like -> here it is....

and can you find a genuine one -> yes sypherg would have one that he will sell for cheap.

difference between real and replica->the replicas are usually non-reflective.

to get the AUSDM EK vti-r to look like the JDM EK4, all you need is to swap in the JDM ek cluster(i'm sure if you pm genesis, he would have a pix of his for you) and have the SIR emblem as above. There,you are done. if you are in for stock look. this is the best - stock JDM you can get without spending much:)

no worries, and i heard that you have also contacted sypherg ;)

btw if you are really into that canadian cluster, i have to tell you that the cost of shipping is one factor that you would have to look into if you are considering buying.

and if you are that keen i could get the boys in canada to help keep a look out. else a JDM piece is a good buy, japan is closer and the cost is thus lower in some aspects.

Have fun:)
