Default Cluster Swap

I have got my Classic imported into Canada now but I was wondering if I could swap a cluster from a Disco into my truck so as to have a km/hr as the main reading and more effectively track my mileage etc. I have found a cluster for sale nearby that looks the same but I am unsure of the wiring.

I have a late '95 build with the soft dash.

Also I am changing out my rattling speakers for some new ones. I had some Infinity tweeters sitting around the house so I changed the A Pillar Speakers and I am putting in some 3.5" Infinity's to replace my mids. I was reading that the stock amp doesn't put out much power. Does anyone know the ratings for the newer Harman/Kardon setup? I have an aftermarket headunit the the PO installed but the factory crossovers, amps and sub are working still with the original wiring. I don't know if I have the patience right now to rip everything out. I am wondering if I would be better off to replace the 6.5" and wire them direct to the HU or keep the original setup for now, replacing the mids as intended (they sound the worst in my opinion) and eventually replace the crossovers, amp and low note 6.5"s.

Thanks

I'm not sure if they are or are not compatible.
You could always just switch the speedometer. I think this one may work but I'm not 100% sure.... LAND ROVER PARTS - ELECTRONIC SPEEDOMETER IN KILOMETERS DISC I

You could simply get a speedo correction unit and adjust it so that the MPH positions become KPH readings. That is, increase the speed reading by 62%

The Rovers North Option looks viable... our warning lights here are a bit different and I am used to the symbols (silly I know) so I thought the whole cluster might be nice... maybe I will just get one and if it doesn't work out I will order the part from Rovers North.
