Easy to wire. Font doesn't quite match OEM but what do you expect for a vehicle that hasn't been made for over 35 years.

Questions
Ken E.
Can you tell me if the gauge illumination looks the same as factory? I do not want a modern looking (LED or White light) when the rest of the dash looks like traditional incandescent bulbs. Thank you for you help.
This gauge is OE replacement in every way. The illumination comes from a small incandescent bulb. The only reason it may not match the other gauges would be due to the age of the bulbs in them

Since this requires a 3-inch hole what is the overall diameter of the face of the Gauge?
In the description it states that there is no modifying needed to a dash that has been prepped for the factory tach. The factory tach hole is not 3 inch, is smaller.
The widest diameter is 3-1/4 (at the bezel). There is a 1/8" lip around the face. The brackets at the back are actually 2-15/16" apart, so a 3" hole will accept the gauge and the bezel will keep it from floating in the opening

What size hole is needed for this particular gauge? My Dash is not prepped for a stock tank.
This requires a 3" hole
