Default gauge cluster swap - wrx -> 2001 porsche boxster - possible?

So I saw what a porsche gauge cluster looks like(from a 2001 boxster) and I have to say its pretty sweet looking.



I dont know too much about swapping clusters between wrx and sti, but I was wondering if it'd be possible to rig the porsche cluster in my wrx? For someone that knows about the wiring thats back there, assuming I can find a porsche cluster somewhere, would I just need to rig a wiring harness, or do I have to screw around with a ecu also? I figure it shouldnt be too bad as a cluster should just read a signal and show the proper output, or am I totally wrong.

Is this possible with some work and dremeling and if so anyone know where I can get a used cluster at?

Aside from the mechanical fitment issues, the electronics are bound to be very different and incompatible. Dream all you want, but I wouldn't waste any actual time on this.
