This is what the tachometer in my console looks like.
The tachometer housing in my other 2 pictures looks like
the picture in the Buick Service Manual for the Skylark
Gran Sport.
Which one is correct?

Those last two pics are of a console tach housing for a 63 Wildcat.  The guts are the same though, so you can take them out and put them in the housing in your console.

Brian thanks for the info, anyone in need of a -63 Wildcat housing and chrome retainer ring??
Thats what I had to do, had to cut 6 grooves in the glas and gasket though
to get it to fit the -65 GS housing.
