It wont. (definitely not as easily as an s-pack cluster will)
The plug on the back of the cluster is different. As much as the digital speedo is cool they also have that stupid car door open picture which i think looks crap and is apparently a headache to wire up so anyone that's done it just doesn't install the door ajar warning.
Anyway, it's not a straight swap over.

Does the NA-NC have a Digital Speedo? If not, could you somehow mod one in from a XF Lane cluster?

Sounds a bit hard, but then again it would be pretty sweet, especially with a blue backlight (Someone has done it, either barry_v or LTDHO, can't remember who....the blue backlight that is, not the cluster )

You'd want an NC II/DC II cluster with smartlock. There's plenty of wiring to make the door ajar indicator work too, but it certainly can be done.
