Can I replace the guard itself on a pre-wired pickguard?

I am very interested in buying EMG-DG20 pick ups. I cant afford the new David Gilmour Signature Stratocaster, but I would like to still get a guitar with the maximum sound of the master. I am buying a standard Black Fender Stratocaster and these pick-ups that he used (not on his black, but his cherry red, *which still sounded phenomenal on PULSE*) on his strat sound amazing on them. However... these pick-ups can only be found pre-wired on a pearl pick guard. I want a black pick guard. Is there anyway I can take the pearl pickguard off and a new one on in an easy way?
