Speedo swap? (I really hope)



I've not had the car too long, therefore was surprised to see this speedo in the dash.

Mine is a 1990 Turbo with a sorry faced 180kmph speedo on it.

Any change on earth I can swap mine for the one above. i.e can the cable run 180kmph speedo just be removed & replaced by inserting the cable into the one in the pic?

If yes, what year speedo is the one above ?

Thx.

Ok guys, please check this link & someone please help me understand if I can swap the speedo meter ONLY. (my 180 kmph to be replaced by this mph speedo) I don't care about the rest of the cluster, will not be using any of it.

TOYOTA MR2 MK2 SPEEDO CLOCKS CLUSTER 2.0GTI16 L@@K on eBay (end time 30-Jul-09 15:04:10 BST)

To reconfirm, mine's a JDM 90 Turbo with the 180 kmph speedo. Both clusters are right hand side, so the question of the trip-meter stick fitting into the plastic hole in the visor is settled. Both meters are cable driven & this one's from a 1993 MK2 MR2 2.0GTI16.
