Mini tachometer installation

I thought they stopped making those, seems I read they were on BO from every supplier. The fleabay seller Retrogauge hasn't sold anything since 2009 as far as i can find. I see MU lists them for $140! now. Glad I bought one a few years ago for ~$80, wish I would have stuck with the 6K version but switched to the 8K, kind of cramped numbers.

Sorry if its old news. Some of these websites can be ages old and just new to me.

Go ahead :sarc
 
I installed on a few months ago, Mustangs unlimited has them. One of the best mods I've done.

Do your self a favor and replace your bulbs with LEDs while your in there.

These came out about 2 months after I completed my clock gauge tach conversion. I was pretty pissed because it would've saved me a lot of effort.

Based on some previous forum advice, I picked up an 80's Jeep CJ tach, tore the housing apart, and hacked it into my cluster. It took some work with a dremel, but it turned out pretty well and matches the rest of the dash pretty closely.

I did the same with a VDO tach that matched the other guages pretty well. Not quite as well as the Jeep tach, though!

Seems like an 'upgrade' I would be interested in but all I can find on the MU site is the Tach for a 6 cylinder.
