Re: wire up techometer (DC_RaceR)
just take the big blue wire off the dizzy (i think its the blue one.... its been a while) or you can pull the gauge cluster out and splice into the stock tach wire
theres a pin on the fuse box for accessories. I always just spliced to the radio tho for keyed power

Re: (doublejz)
Ah.... you're one of those people.....
"Hey everyone, should I spend $60-80 on a tachometer that's prewired and bolts right into my car because it's part of the cluster .... or should I spend $150 on some 5" clock that I have to drill into my car to install and splice wires?"

Re: (DC_RaceR)
Nah, you can find a civic ex cluster with a tachometer for $80 or less. Check ebay.
*CORRECTION* Maybe $100 + shipping, tops. They seem to have gone up a tiny bit since I bought mine 2 years ago
Anyhoo, regardless of the price, it's simpler, cleaner, and best of all ... made by honda.
