If you want to fit your own it is very easy, 3 wires, thats all.....

If you want any advice grab me at the next meet or pop into Autosafe Garage and i will show you.

Right, I fitted a tacho few months ago and its doin my nut in. Am takin my gauges out of the pod cos it looks **** and am mounting the tacho where my clock is on my dash - Heres tha problem

3wires
One to illuminate ie sidelights
One to Earth
One to wire that goes to Ign module (i dnt have a coil on my car)

The revs it says am doin are wrong, i.e its seays am redlinein at 3k and i know this has something 2 do with the signal wire (2 Ign mod) Its as if it isnt getting a stong enough signal.

Any 1 help?

some of the have a setting switch at the back. This is to tell the tacho what cylinders your car has. This would then determine what signal strenght it needs. If we have time I will take a look at the next meet...
