Hi, I have a 1990 E30 316i and my instrument cluster has no tacho :x and I saw this 4 door E30 sedan part car (same type) and was wondering if I could use the instrument cluster from it (which has a tacho). So simply the question is can I install the tacho into my non-tacho car :? (I'm no mechanic :P :P )

replace the whole cluster with the tacho one. it's just plug and play (after you carefully unscrew it from the dash)

There weren't E30s around as late as 1990 with no tacho, were there?
