FOUND: 5k Tachometer for BMW 325es

[hawaiie30]

Looking for a tachometer for my '86 325es. I've changed the SI board, fuses, checked the grounding nuts, and the tach is still dead. This is the next step as far as I can tell.

The tach that fits my cluster has four mounting points in a square setup.

If you have one to sell, PM me a photo and price. Thanks!

I actually have one that came out of my 86 Eta. Don’t need it anymore because I’m doing a motor swap and put in a 7k. I can pm photos when I get home. In about 30 minutes. As long as you cover the shipping from NC to Hawaii, I’ll just give it to you. Probably around $10 or so. Better than it hanging out in my garage collecting dust haha

PM sent with photos. Let me know if the came through

The pics just in case

Thanks Redstar, mine has different mounting points, though, so that one won't fit. Updated the original post. I really appreciate it though!

There is an 86es in a junkyard near me. It had gauges last I checked. I could probably pull and ship to you if you covered the junkyard cost and shipping.

No problem bud! If you ever need anything else let me know. I have a bunch of Eta parts, and will have more soon haha

That would be amazing! I haven't been able to find a tach with the older red drum anywhere!

Thanks man! Going through the engine now, it runs great but I haven't had a good look at the condition of everything yet.

That’s always the fun part haha. Good luck!

I seem to have found the only one on eBay, advertised in working condition. Here's to hoping it actually works!
