On late cars, rev counters are plug and play. Just remove the instrument cluster from the dash, undo a few screws and replace the clock with the rev counter.

Cheers

you MAY find there is no wire for the tachometer to the Renix ignition computer ... but the 12v feed and earth will be there already in the mounting hole in the dash..
