I believe there are just 2 studs and 2 nuts, not four.

The cost to restore an original hood tach is surely worth more than a less than totally accurate reproduction.

13) There are several well-known authorities who restore original Hood Tachs to include
re-silk screening the original face, new circuit board, rebuilt or new movement (head) and
case/trim repair/replacement This would be for the concours types as prices can exceed the
$250 or so for a new repro unit.

NOTE:
IF YOU HAVE CORRECTIONS TO THIS INFO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANKS.
