Will these gauges fit my cb550f build without any trouble?

I found these gauges online and wanted to try them out. Do these have the same connections as the factory gauges or do I have to improvise, and how hard is it to adapt the to the bike?

   THose are what came on the 80' CB650C I just got recently. The tach works, but the speedometer doesn't and I haven't had time to sit down and find out why yet. I've seen this come up before and I don't think there is anything special to do, but I am not sure about that though. Be much better if someone will chime in on this, who knows what they are talking about. ::)

any word if these gauges will work?  I'd love to have a set for my '77 550K.
