Just sharing some info:
I was able to find an instrument cluster with a tach for a four cylinder (has a 4 on it instead of v6) and was able to successfully swap it for the cluster I had. My original cluster only have the big speedo in the center.
The connectors were the same so it hooked right up.
I was also able to disassemble the new cluster and remove the odometer so I could roll it manually to match my current mileage (and no, I didn't cheat and lower it ). This part was tricky, I had to completely remove the roller and pull the locking plastic tabs apart. I can offer more info if anyone else is needing help with this. - again, for lagit purposes only .
Oh, also (almost forgot). You have to remove the speedo needle by pulling it firmly off so the face will come away from the mechanics in the back. This will throw your speedo off unless it is put back on in the correct orientation, which is behind the zero peg. I had my wife drive ahead of me on the interstate with her cruise set so I could put my speedo needle on at that correct speed. Kinda funny method really , but it worked.
Tach works like a charm now, only about 130 or so rpms low according to the x-cal.
