Detailed Description

EMPI, under the JP Group line, offers this tachometer gauge as a performance-focused instrument panel component for the Volkswagen Beetle. The analog display uses a black dial with white markings and a white needle to present engine speed in a simple, easy-to-read format. The 80 mm round face and black body are sized for a specific-fit installation, while the illuminated design supports visibility in low-light driving conditions.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
