Ok-the Autometer control box or tach for that matter connects to the BLUE wire on the distributor connector. Find a switched power sources under the dash and all will be good. Some people take the signal at the tach in the cluster, but the best place is at the dizzy. The direction sheet is available either on the website or you can request that Autometer send it to you. Remember that the light requires the control module if you do not have one of their tachs to connect to. (See the catalog online for part #)

there's actually a blue wire up by the passenger side close to where the fuses are. I'll try to take some pics tommorow when the sun comes out.

on most honda's there a blue "tach test" connector. On the 5th gen's it's over on the pass side by the battery. Single blue wire going to a dual plug, hooked into a holder. I know 98 civic's have it on the drivers side.
