my problem with it is one u should have used a tach with no "setter" so u dont have that box sticking out of the plastic.. and two u will now get condensation behind the cover since u have that hole it in..

I dont like the look, I think i fu needed a tach (which u do) u should have just mounted it to the dash or elsewhere for the time being untill u buy a new cluster.

i did have the tach mounted on my dash... its been that way for 2 years, im tired of it being there.... and i agree w/ using a tach w/ no setter, but as previously stated, i already had the tach, so i figured id have some fun....

and you wont get condensation in the panal..... nowhere in my interior do i get condensation.... and the plastic isnt glued back in place, its just sitting on there.. but it will never get condensation...

Agreed black would have made it 1337.

You should have spent some more time carving out the plastic sheild so it molded around the thing. It would have looked sooooooo clean.
