Generally the wires for the Tach are already in the loom, however to put a tripple clock in you will also need the carrier frame for the clocks unless you are putting in an aftermarket dashboard...

Look behind the clocks for a white wire with a female spade terminal an a white/black wire with a bullet connector...

Myabe not the correct place, but I am going to be replacing my wooden dashboard with 3 main clocks, included for a centre speedo. Mine also has 3 small holes for guages and DIN for radio, glove box on left and two holes for fresh air vents if you were looking to buy a used set?
