I searched from internet: which tachometer is good for 126p. I know a bit polish so it is easy to search and look something. I found these videos, That tachometer is from Polonez (Polish car).

This is mine which I bought:

and this is what exactly i want to do!  :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGL8n1DeBzs

I'm asking to you, which one is better choice in your opinion?
this one + temparature gague:

Hello tachometer works so good.
As you know we are using 4cyl engine's tachometer. But our engine 2cyl, so it shows half. When our engine makes 4000rpm, tachometer will show 2000rpm. Just you need to add extra capacitor. You need to make 220 NF --> 440NF
this work making x2 result.
I mean: normally 2000rpm after capacitor shows 4000rpm. :) ı hope i explained good.
I did also a video, with pictures about tachometer.

from 126 el, gauges. + Cinquecento Temperature Gauge. It fit so good except temparature. If you want elx's gagues you must also buy elx's speedometer cable.Because Bis speedometer cable is not fitting with elx. This is the same with CC sporting gauges :)

as you can see difference, (left bis, right elx)
(http://i.hizliresim.com/kkML2A.jpg)

Everything was good but until engine get hot. Cinquecento temparature gauge is showing ~12 *C more. It is dangerous. Like overheating.
