The cluster conversion has been described many times, look over on renntech as suggested above. It is very straight forward. No 996 cluster will give you oil temp. The extra gauges are oil pressure and voltmeter. As stated above the 996 cluster is a more sophisticated dot matrix display, with obc. The cluster is plug and play for a boxster as i sell it, you need to add a 996 oil pressure sender and run a wire to the cluster, you also need to install the OBC stalk. Anyone who can use a screwdriver can install it.

You can add the extra gauges to a boxster cluster if you so desire, but it is a little more involved.
