2” / 52mm tachometer old style

Hi
Busy redoing dashboard and am looking for a smaller tachometer gauge that will match existing clocks, not digital readout or LED or anything modern. It’s for the x flow powered jeep so doesn’t need a massive range I suspect I might have a small Tim item but can’t find it at the moment so something along those lines.
Have had a quick scout on eBay but nothing obvious there.
Cheers
Mike

VDO sell 52mm diameter rev counters: https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/s/instruments-gauges-senders/vdo-gauges-and-senders/vdo-cockpit-vision-gauges

Smiths too:

If you can go to 80mm or 100mm there is more choice from VDO, Smiths, Ractech etc. E.g https://www.holden.co.uk/p/smiths_classic_80mm_max_hand_tacho_0_8_000_rpm

Cheers
Mike

car builder solutions have some. A quick search found this, although i'm sure they do a pack of three gauges for 36 quid which i think has a tacho.

Thanks for the steers, VDO items are a bit expensive and over kill for this application. The fruited one could be a runner!
Cheers
