i would imagine the dash is going to be a HUGE pain to remove, and not completely destroy. SOO much plastic to contend with...

ok i have an 08 and have al the goodies with it for the evic. Some 08's didn't come with them though. The one way to tell if your cluster has the evic is between the very left gauge that has the temp and fuel and the tach will be a button like the one for the trip. So if you have 2 buttons on the cluester you have the evic. Here's a pic of mine for reference if ya want.

Even if it has it...the actual speed sensor is on the hub i believe not the actual cluster...from what i've read it doesn't go by the speedo but the actual wheel hubok i have an 08 and have al the goodies with it for the evic.

Yeah probably. although i know that the SRT can be completely swapped to a regualr caliber because there are a couple of people who have done it. I bet your Cali will look sweet though once it's done.

oh yes yes i read that thread on red forum... i would consider that an srt4 because only used the shell of the sxt...im just putting motor and clutch in on the 5 speed tranny...other than those and cluster...everything else will be R/T....gunna make it a sleeper R/T
now all you will need is a "rice burner" badge and you will be set...now for the racing of hondas with fart cans lol

Nope...going to see how the 5 spd does...bolts right up and srt clutch works with it also...gears r a little deeper in the 5 spd so im going to see how that holds and if i have to...get a 6 speed down the road
