Default VDO rev counter ?

I would like to remplace the std rev counter from my saph cosworth 4wd by something like a VDO black rev counter, to keep some sort of std look. Basically it needs to go up to 8k rpm. VDO, racetech or whatever, needs to remplace the std rev counter, so has to fit in size.

Tried demon-tweeks, but without success.

A bit expensive, and I do not really like the look of them (with the large plate on the side with STACK on it). I think I will take this one :



VDO tacho, 8k rpm, 80mm diameter

110£ tho.

But has anyone fitted other rev counter ?

Elliots are nice, some have grafted a mondeo rev counter in there, pretty easy to do, if you are running coilpack.
