Get one from your local self serve wreckers. And then ask yourself WHY the hell you really wanted the tacho...

ok cheers
i just thought there were different ways that tachos get their readings and seeing as my car is a bit old i was just a bit worried that whether or not a newish tacho would work.

You just need three wires connected, a power, a earth and a feed from the Negitive side of the coil, i'm not familiar with your model of car but they wil all be sitting at teh back of your speedo cluster, its just a matter of matching them to the tachos wiring.

Hey there mate, if u want u can change the instrument cluster to the csx model as statered before, it will replace your bick clock with a factory tacho, easy to find for about $50 and easy to install
hope this helps
