So I have always loved the look of the CR cluster, looked to buy an entire cluster but apparently people want an arm and a leg for them. So after doing some research I found there are only 2 differences in a base 08-09' cluster and the CR version. The lens cover and LCD panel. These are the only 2 part numbers that vary. I opted just for the lens cover for the CR look on my base 09'. I'm not sure if the LCD panel for CR will give you the max power indicator or not. All I did was swap just the lens out. It is a plug n play for 08-09 only.
The part from majestic is $32
I plan do eventually use the power indicator but need to do some more research and see if the LCD panel is what I need, this piece is pricey but still cheaper than a used CR Cluster and you can keep your miles the same.

Nice!! I never even knew there was a difference. I like the yellow accents on the CR one.

 

Thx Andy! Yeah the yellow accents look great!

 

looks good. the yellow makes it pop.

 

Couldn't agree more

 

I always liked the yellow lines. Pretty cool that is was a cheap and easy mod

 

Thx!

 

this is really nice!

i'm surprised to see your 09's fuel/temp gauges looks like this.

i thought all AP2's have "arch style" gauges like this:

 

Thx. Yeah 08'-09' clusters are different than prior ap2's
