David, and Listees,


I've obtained an '87 GL instrument panel, complete with digital clock and
tachomete. Can I deduce from your message that the tach connection is just a
matter of running a line (what size wire?) from the coil to what part
(connection point) of the tach?
Is the complete instrument panel interchangeable, to your knowledge, or do I
just replace the standard clock-with-the-hands with the tachometer and connect a
single wire as you specify? What, then, would power the clock?
Thanks,


Tom Hanlon
