Default Changing the instrumental cluster

I'm thinking about getting the 01-05 instrumental cluster. Is it easy to put on or a pita with instructions I can put anything together but without I'm a lost cost. I'm thinking about ordering it through Lexus part store is it cheaper at Carson Toyota?

Get it from Carson's, alot cheaper. Ask for Luis or Steve real good to work with. Oh yah, it's real simple to change out......just pull on the sides inward and pops right out. Make sure you get the wiring harness with it as well. Hope that helps?

Yeah you can order the harness separately. I know someone here did it, you just need the part number. Hopefully someone here can provide you with that.
