Autometer Tach install on 93 Civic B18c1
I searched with no results. And I don't have a Helms so I don't know which wires go which.
My bud wants to hit the drag tracks this weekend, but it kinda sucks that he don't know where to shift at! LOL!
Anyone with a quick write up? TIA!

LOL! Sorry, it's not my car and I didn't buy it. He bought it off some guy, so there were no instructions. Thanx for the help guys!

white-12v dash light (a wire that is hot when your turn your dash lights on)
red-12v feed (a wire that is hot when you turn your car on)
black-ground
green-is your tach feed (goes to distributor or you can find the wire at your ecu or even run it to the back of your gauge cluster)

white- hit it to the dimmer switch lead.
red- just tap into the 12V ignition lead in the radio harness
black- any good ground inside the dash.
green- a light BLUE wire on the left side of the gauge cluster(while it is still in and facing you....if you take it out and are looking at the back, it's gonna be on your right side)..no need at all to go all the way to the dizzy

or you can tap it inside the engine bay, its a blue wire on the far right of the engine bay ,its by the other harness. its just sitting there by itself wrapped in black tape, the techs use it as a rpm feed.

poke a wire through the firewall = 30 seconds
pulling a gauge cluster = 10 minutes
destroying the trim around the gauge cluster then beating your head on steering wheel for not listening = PRICELESS

You can always check out autometer.com. I believe they have the instructions in pdf format available. Good luck!
