RE: [T3] Tachometer

["Neil" <neil@neil.us>]

The only Type 3 Tach that I know of with a VW part number on it is the
Aussie tach. It is part number 31A 919 003 The 31A is the part number prefix
for Type 3 Australia parts. It is a Type 3 tach, and it is factory.

I still don't think ANY type 3s, except possibly the type 34s, came from the
factory with tachs. I think they were all aftermarket, which includes dealer
installed units. They don't appear in the VW parts lists, so I don't think
you'll find a VW part number or logo on them.
