Default swapping out guage cluster

I am swapping out my dx gauge cluster for an ex guage cluster. I am swapping it out of my 94 civic. Is there any other type of wiring that I have to do before I put this in. The only reason why I ask is because the dx has no tach and the ex does. Let me know

honda was smart and prewired the dash harness ( saves money and they dont have to produce different variations of the same harness ).

careful taking out the bezel, there's a screw that's on the back of it only accessible with the dash out, but usually everyone just pulls on it to purposely snap it off. Hopefully it won't leave the bezel cracked in front

just take out the old, plug in the new VERY VERY easy..but like G2 Ls-vtec said, be careful about cracking stuff. all of that plastic will crack very easily
