Repo Rally Gauges and Clock/Tach are available. They are a little pricey. IMO

Repros are available only as a set for 429. There are multiple detailed threads here about installing them and improving the night lighting.
I did it and like them.

Fusick has them, the Parts place has them, and there might be some other places.
While there might be a price difference plate to place, I have heard they are the same set from the same factory.

The $110 installation kit comes with sending units ($20 at your local parts shop), a 45* brass elbow (can also be bought for $20 separately), and a wire to go fro the disty to the tach. You can make this with 18 gauge wire and an inline fuse holder with 3A fuse.
So you can get all this at half price a la cart. From what I heard, the senders that come in the kit are the same as the over-the-counter ones...

Just keep in mind, that the night lighting on these suk, to say the least. However, some brighter ligh bulbs and a couple small bottles of model paint will get them bright and pretty.
I did a thread on here on how to do that.
