as I have the same problem, can you give any instructions on how to do it? :)
thanks!
yep, my one is cracked too, and has been since about a year old.
They must use some cr@p glass...

I think you have to cut the unit apart behind the bezel, as it is sealed?
This is how I've seen them done to replace the inner decal with a new colour one (or to switch from KPH to MPH).
I *think* that I have a knackered tacho in the garage which has decent glass in it that someone can have for postage. I know I've got two knackered tachos in the garage, just can't remember if they're both cracked or not!
Although, it might be worth getting a decent piece of glass made up instead as they're obviously prone to cracking!
