Since you have a 95 you run the chances of having a cable driven gauge cluster. IN which case you would have to run a wire for the tach to work. You can tell if you're cluster is cable driven if you look at the all the way right number on the trip odometer, if its white, then you have electronic, if its orange then you have cable driven

If you do have an electronic guage cluster (which makes this a lot easier), then you can go to a local bone yard, or check E-bay for a Gauge cluster thats for the I4 WITH tach. You can tell the difference between the I4 cluster and V6 cluster very Easily. The I4 w/tach has a Redline of 6500 RPM's. the V6 has 6700 RPM's. As well as the V6 tach says "V6" on it. the I4 tach has a very small "4" written below the tach dial.




The only Cable Driven speedos are the early 95's the odometer push thingy is on the opposite side of the gauge.
