I paid 35 for my tacho TF dash (same features as you describe). Just plug it in and all but the oil pressure will work, for which you need the oil pressure sender unit. so grab that whilst your there and hope it works. check the dash lights work before fully bolting it all back together, otherwise you waste time taking it back out etc

Thanks Mate
Is it just me or is $250 for a 5spd a rip off??? not recon but running
With the sender thing is it just a pull out and replace job??? im not sure if the eng at the wreckers is running or whatever. if i just pull it out will it drop much oil???

You only need a sender unit for the oil pressure gauge, everything else works fine. The oil pressure sender is a straight swap, it has two electrical connections on it one for the warning light and the other for the gauge. When you remove the sender unit oil will come out of it so bung the hole with something i.e. piece of rag. When you screw the new sender unit in you will find the wire for the oil pressure gauge wrapped up in tape on the same wire as the warning light. Actually getting the gauge to work can be fun, when i installed mine i had to muck around with it before it worked but now it is fine.
