I Put A tacho In A 93 VP Series 2

I Fitted a 3.75" Tacho On my dash above my middle air vents, ran the wires through the dash, connected the red wire to my On setting on my Ignition, The Black To the Under Dash Ground, and My signal wire was Green, i connected it the the brown wire about a foot out from the fire wall on the passenger side of the car in the wiring loom, Works ideal. :yeah:
