Default Tachometer in a DX?

I've just bought a 98 DX (EJ6) and it does not have a tachometer. If I was to find a gauge cluster from another same gen Civic (96-00) that does have a tach, would a simple swap like this work? Is it all wired up for a tach, or would I have to wire anything up?

The speedo/odometer would be swapped out from my car and placed in the new cluster, just need to know if the tach would work.

Thanks.

Yes the cluster will just swap right in, it's plug and play, nothing to wire up. My friend put an Si cluster in his EJ6 and it works awesome.

$80-120, depending on if you wanna get a manual or auto, and how nice the seller is.
