I take it you mean the F6 gauges for the dash. Saw them on ebay for $425 which I thought was over the top + the actual gauges and wiring cost $$$ I'm sure someone can help you, pretty cluey lads on here....

The tacho driver WILL NOT help you at all. It's designed to take the Can Bus tacho signal from the ECM and convert it to a 5volt square wave signal that a normal aftermarket tacho (ie autometer)can read.hope this help....

FSIX Member 566 Member For: 18y 11m 28d Posted 01/05/06 01:05 PM Share Posted 01/05/06 01:05 PM The Ford racing tacho driver is for running an after market taking on a BA OR BF these 2 models don't have a tacho signal to plug in for a after market tacho. If you use this tacho driver from Ford racing you can connect any after market tacho up to your ba or bf.Part No: Ford Racing Tach driver 17361-A200Herrod Sell them for $175, or you can buy them direct form Brisbane Ford racing distributor for $122.I also have a 2 page word document on instructions if anyone is interested.
