What's wrong with the one on the dash

[matty94]

Wasnt trying to be rude or anything mate just letting you know. If pull out your dash cluster where the std tacho bolts on the cluster theres three bolts. Tops ground, middle is the tacho signal and bottems the power. For your lights just use the light swich. Thats for the L2 cluster with the tacho already in it. If you get stuck just ask.

nothing is wrong with tacho dash buts its in a manual burnout car and i was thinking of getting rid of hole dash and makin a lil custom one up

thanks for the tips

if your takeing out the whole dash just use the wires of the plugs that go into the cluster its all labelled on the back of the cluster.

you havent unpluged any of you loom or anything have you. well since its a burnout car just run the power to the fuse box tap into power after its fused. then just earth it somewhere and run the tacho signal wire to the engine bay.
