Should I keep looking for a factory Tach or buy an aftermarket?

I'm getting close to having all my interior parts, but 2 things are still bugging me. First off, my dash has the 120mph speedometer and I really would like to have the 150mph one. The second thing is that I have a clock now, but really want a tach. My question is should I keep waiting and trying to find a factory tach, which is expensive and may or may not work, or should I just give up and buy one of the repro units that YO has? I know they look very similar, but I just don't know!!!  :shruggy:

is simply your choice.

I would like to get an Original one, then on second instance a hood tach... since didn't get one or another at the end I went with the smaller and basic 8K autometer to fit below the ashtray.

Never thought on get one of the repro ones, but that's just me

If the repro is reproed correct, go for the repro.  I have many repro parts on my car with no regrets.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Is not correct.

-wrong font.
-wrong scale ( 8K instead 7K )
-and needle goes completelly down. Original does have a stop around 0 Rpms

Simply does look similar
