There is no lemon law for used cars, only new ones.
05s2kmia, the VIN of your car has the model year embeded in it. So with a VIN of JHMAP21405T000001 is an 05 and a VIN of JHMAP21406T000001 is an 06.
So what number is in your VIN?
Also can you post a picture of your engine bay and dash cluster?

Ok, that prove it. It in an 05.
So you Don't have VSA. So if you say the " brake light,check engine and vsa lights " are on, can you shoot a picture of the Dash cluster and post it?
Also just to be sure the prior owner did not swap out the motors, clusters, ect.. Can you shoot a picture of the motor and post that too?
most of us can tell by sight if your motor/cluster is right for that year or not.

Let me look up some information. Unless someone else can confirm the custer.
But I think you are right, they installed a newer cluster when thye put it back together. You may need to replace it with the proper year's cluster. This is solely based on the fact that VSA was not part of the 05.
As an FYI, the cluster in the S2000 has a computer in it. It hold the mileage of the car and calculates other functions. I.E Brake light is calculated from the swtich and a sensor on the master cylinder. Either can turn it on. So it could be that Honda changed the cluster on the inside to support VSA but did not change the connections on the back. Sot is technically fits in the car and works for the most part, all would be just fine too.
