I just wouldn’t bother and dive without AI?
The dive shop might be not be happy about you messing with rented kit - especially if you are a new diver. If you tip well they might attach it for you - but then they are attaching an unknown piece of gear to their reg.
Also, if you are on your first dives after OW and go with guided dives, the guide might want to physically check your gas (especially if you get confused, don’t signal well etc) - much easier with an SPG.
