Where and what part for Tach/Clock for my USA 451?

I see a few sites that sell the Tach/Clock but they say things like CDI version only, etc.

What part number do I need to order for my US 451 Passion and which site can I purchase it from?

It's in the accessory booklet. Call your dealer. It's not an aftermarket item.

CDI is the euro diesel smart. The accessory version cost about $200. Much cheaper to order it on your configuration.

smart of Chandler (Arizona) says 8-12 weeks because parts USA parts are scarce and they ship from France when they are available.

I'd rather purchase from a supplier anywhere that can get it faster than 8-12 weeks

It is one thing to physically install these gauges, but are they pre-wired from the factory for installation at the dealership or by an individual?

It is a very simple plug and play installation. Remove the center dash cover and radio, mount the gueges, plug them in. The center dash cover has two cutout outlines on the underside showing where to trim to make room for the mounts
