Looks like high series EF to me (white dials and oil, batt guages). I thought EF was just EF... no I or II.

If you want to change your cluster or gain the oil pressure and voltage gauges, the best way to do it would be with either a Fairmont or an XR cluster. Unless you're willing to add a lot of wiring and go through a lot of stress, swearing and effort for (IMHO) little gain, it's just not worth it.

if order to do this, u have to add a fair few wires.
to be honest it'd be easily to put a fairlane loom in the whole car to get it working right :P
