TII to NA gauge cluster conversion

Since I'll be installing a whole new set of gauges around the interior I won't be needing the stock turbo gauge and I was wondering if the NA versions were interchangeable in someway so that I could swap it with a voltmeter. Should I even bother? Should I lose the stock gauges in that location and put in a few aftermarket or should I just ignore that set all together?

as long as it is the same series, you can swap the clusters with no problems.

The volt meter gets it's power from the same power that powers up the standard ad Turbo clusters

Yeah I did the same thing on my 10thAE, so I could have a voltmeter and use an mechanical boost/vac gauge
