Default 91 crx dx gauge cluster swap

iv read some stuff about doing this but i want a straight up answer.

which would be easier and how easily can it be accomplished.

i want to swap my dx gauge cluster (only upto 8krpm) for a jdm ef 8/9 cluster or the euro crx cluster since these bother rev up to 9k which is what i need.

please dont tell me to get an aftermarket tach, im not interested in cluttering my interior with gauges, i want a clean car.

for those of you who havent seen the project you can check it out here:

There are wiring guides on the net somewhere for it. Mostly just matching up colors though. You'll also need some way of getting a vss pulse for the spedo and ecu to work. I have one for sale with a home made pulse generator for $125 shipped if your interested.

you only have to trim the top thingy on the cluster and nothin else really...it look pretty clean except for the fuel/temp are gonna be hidden barely like a 1/8" each behind the cluster hood..
