Tacho in the A-Pillar

[CraigW]

TBH it doesn't obstruct the view that much, must be because of how short I am and how close I sit on the dashboard anyway

Yes they will light up when they are wired up but the wiring I currently have seems a little short. Shall do a how to guide when I get some wire and my mates fits it for me because I will only end up doing it wrong and breaking something.

A how to guide will definetly be a good idea!!

Gives me something to refer to when i get around to fitting my tacho!!

Where did u get ur pillar mount from??

Wire them into your headlamp switches mate, can also use the dimmer too if it has one

Good thinking batman

Got the a-pillar mount from POTN.co.uk as it was cheaper then by pennies then buying from rgmstyling who make it

I was looking at my engine bay 2nite and the ignition coil box in my car only has 2things going into it. On the front is the main ht lead and on the left there is a wiring plug and thats it.

Im guessing u wud have to wire the tacho to one of the wires on the wiring plug.

Wiring it up to the headlights seems a good idea........... Include that in the how-to-guide aswell!!

well its now all wired up and looks like this when on:

Not got a how to guide as my very good friend wired it all up while I made coffee and sat on the phone. But it seemed easier enough

It will never reach the red line as it will only go to just under 6000rpm if I am lucky!

Would it be possible for you to put up a rough guide to where the gauges have been wired to and which wire they should be connected with and how you connected it to the correct wire??

Im going to do this in the next few weeks n i dont really have a clue where the wiring should go?!

Im interested in the wiring of the voltmeter aswell!
