Default how to install a rpm guage

Hey fellas, it has come time again to ask for your help. I just bought a autometer rpm guage. I not sure where am i gonna hoock up the green wire. I use the red wire in one of the open fuse terminal, hook up the white wire up, ground the black, but not sure where the green one goes. Also do i clip the brown,yellow wires because its not a v-8,v-6. Thanks!

I'm guessing here, because I've never installed one, but maybe the green connects to the harness that connects to your Cluster?

green wire from the autometer go to the tach signal which is blue wire on the driver side shock tower if you car is an eg, or you can hook it at the ecu.
