Default Cossie dash clocks, all one unit???

i think i may need to replace the rev counter on my 4x4 saph, is this one complete unit, i.e speedo and rev counter or can you remove them and just replace the rev counter???

the 3dr clocks are quite different, the font used for the numbering is totally different to the saphs. Im not sure about the physical connections.

there are 2 different basic layouts of rev counters, they are different in the way that they attach and connect to the circuit board. i think a 3 door will be different to a sapph.

The rest is the same though. As I bought a set of cossie clocks off here and they turned out to be 2wd ones I think. I still managed to use the rev counter out of it and just put my speedo and temp gauges into the new clocks housing. All the loom connections were the same.
