its easy to do. All you have to do is remove the 4 bolts and unhook the wire harness and remove the cluster...once that is done you can pope the plastic top off and put the white faces it.

That is true if that is what you are looking for then you will have to do a mycolor upgrade, that is not the white face gauges.....2 different things

So I guess my question is, Will it be plug and play to take out my GT guages and upgrade to the Roush guages?

The bezel around the cluster will pull straight out. It's just clipped in. Then you can get to the bolts. If you need to pull the needles off without having an IDS start the car and take note of were the needles are when warmed up. Put them back on with the car running and at the same temperature. The speedo will be hard to get accyrate with this way though.
If these are the style you're looking at

They are sometimes included in the white face kit.
Getting the needles back on so they point properly
is another horror story..... [
