What is the engineering number stamped on the backside of the housing?  It looks like there was some "conversion" work done on the wiring. Sometimes the parts are worth more than the sum, this might be the case.  The engineering number will give us a better idea of value.

That's about the worst hack job on a dash cluster harness I've seen.  If you want to sell the cluster, remove all of that wiring, as it is very distracting.

Didn't the tachometer option, also include a trip meter for the odometer?

If it were factory it did.
