Swapping dash panels--help! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a complete dash panel with gauges that I want to swap for a warning light panel now in my '68. I also have a complete gauge panel wiring harness that came with the truck when I bought it that looks intimidating to me.
I know I have to switch temp senders and run an oil pressure tube from the motor, perhaps change wiring for the ammeter--what else?
I really don't want to change out that whole harness if I can keep from it! Wiring is not one of my strong points, and I know a lot of you have done this swap , so info please!
