Nissan Pulsar Distributor Problem

Hi I have a 1998 Nissan Pulsar CJ-1 with a GA15DE Auto Transmission engine. It does not have a rev counter on its dash cluster and would like to replace it with the one that has a rev counter on it. Is this possible? If so then how do I go about doing this as I already have the cluster with rev counter in it but I can not connect as there isn't a third lug connection in the car. Would be much appreciated if someone could let me know.

This is not a plug and use situation. You would have to rewire the meter cluster as some wires would be missing and most likely the wire positions on the 2 connector present have to be relocated. You need to map out both meter wiring connectors and rerlocate as necessary.

The rpm signal would have to come from the distributor.
