The cabrio began with 2005 model year, so there are none with the same year as yours.
If you want to swap only the tach to a dual gauge, it has been attempted before but never successfully. It is possible (has been done before) to swap in the entire Nav system along with dual gauge and harnesses from a donor car.

Yep, things don't seem to work 100% if not done with a new NAV or Chronopack center cluster. The center cluster controls the gauges on top of the steering column. At the minimum, the dummy lights and warnings are incorrect because they are in a different position on the steering column gauge. You might be able to correct this with custom gauge faces, but the 2 gauge retrofit isn't as easy as it seems.
