Yeah it would be a great solution but the Archives has
very little info on doing the wiring for this swap.
Ive searched under "Instrument panel" "Tachometer"
"RPM Guage" and Ive only found this bit of info which
contradicts what most people are saying that the
wiring is already there and just needs to be plugged
in. See Below what was said:

("You need to run a wire from the + terminal of the
coil up to the
 instrument panel. Use 14awg wire because of the
length it has to run. Then
 you just need to get a ground from the instrument
panel and you are ready
 to go. The + coil terminal will be the one that goes
to the distributor.")

I plugged my new 84 Instrument panel w/Tach into my
84' instrument wiring harness(with noticably DIFFERENT
wire arrangment in the plug) And the idiot light thats
in the
temperature guage starts blinking. I didnt even have
the
key turned on. Gas level Guage works tho.

Phil, whos ready to go buy a VDO quage
