None of your pics work.  Pictures that are hosted on TDIClub cannot be posted elsewhere. 

In order to have a tach on my Mk1, I modified a Mk1 gasser tach in order to run off the w-terminal and added that to my Mk1 cluster.

Libby I should work with you on the exact conversion.  I have replaced capacitors, resistors and added wire links as described in a write up I believe done here or maybe elsewhere but I still can't seem to make it work. 

One of those rainy day projects I can never seem to find on the workbench when it is indeed a rainy day. 

Like today.  I ended up converting a lamp that didn't seem to have a good ballast anymore and a replacement is NLA.  So I just put a regular socket in place of the four pin one and screwed in an LED bulb.

 Sorry,but to upload photos on this forum what is the procedure? Please explain to me Thank you

It has been a few years since I did that to my Rabbit so the details are foggy.  If memory serves I largely followed this page although I believe the tach circuits were not exactly the same:

I cross-referenced the circuits in this FAQ thread:

I'm afraid I don't recall better specifics than that.
