Hello,
I just purchased a 2004 Civic VP, and it has no tachometer. I would like to install a small and discreet tachometer. My question is how many wires do I need to run, and do I need to make any permanant mods?

thanks,

Ben

 

Probably gonna be 3 wires, one for the tach reading which goes to the distributor, one power for lighting and one ground.

 

when did a honda civic 04 ever have a distributor? i might be a moron but i dont seem to see one? hmmmmm

LOL!! Nicely done . The ECU signal wire that reads RPM is what you'll be looking to tap. Although your car doesn't come with a tach, the wires for it are probably chillin behind the gauge cluster waiting for your handiwork.

 

Only by putting an EX cluster you have a tachometer?
or do you need to do another things?
