Do some looking around on jegs. I was looking at this for my old car. Its basic, not that big but not really small. Only like $60.

Do a cluster swap. I have an extra one if you want to buy one.

I've got this one, I wanted something small but big enough to see. It's not a race car, don't need a huge 5" tach and shift lite.



Paid like 20 bucks for it on ebay, works great.

Very easy. They come with directions. Heres a link if you wanna read it over.

Only like 3 or 4 wires.
