Default Gauge Cluster Info?...

So I have a 93 Z28 and Im not a huge fan of the yellow... Can I swap in a 94 up cluster easily or is it a pain for some reason? Thanks for any help.

IT should plug right in, The newer ones also have a different temp gauge and less lines between the numbers looks alot cleaner.

I have performed this swap. All the information I read said that I needed to remove the tach filter, however upon removal the tachometer still didn't read properly. My solution was to put the circuit board from the 93 cluster into the new one, i also swapped my odometer over at the same time and hooked the tach filter back up. Everything works perfect.

This is exactly what I ended up doing. At first the tach didnt want to read right, so instead if messing with the filter I just swapped the board and odo. Works perfect and looks 100X better. Thanks for the help!
