Speedo Issue - '89 K10042 (Almost Done) 200

I started with the Odometer working but not the Speedo.
Got an '87 instrument Cluster, but the Odometer did not work because the little white gear was damaged.
The goal was to keep my '89 Odometer with 214,000 miles.
I managed to pull the '89 Speedo apart and discovered that there
was a short across the 2 terminals connected to the needle coil.
Removed the needle, face, and coil section and removed 2 boards,
one of which (I believe) is for the Service Reminder,

Now, the $20,000 question... The '87 Speedo only has the single
board containing the Odometer gear. Can I install the '87 board
on my '89 Speedo without a problem, I don't really care about the
Service Reminder.

Thanks all.
