hey guys, I live in rosebud, VIC.
Just wanting to know, to get a rev's tacho installed, where would I take my car?
auto electrician? or elsewhere?
Im hopeless with car wiring, unless its audio-wise...

cheers

You could just buy a Level 2 cluster which already has a tacho, they are a straight swap no wiring involved plus looks stock, can pick them up cheap off ebay.

Oh wow! Smart thinking. ****, I could even go to the wreckers. I'd save a ****ing ****-load!

But is there any problem that may occur? ie - odometer mis readings, speedo misreadings, fuel etc etc?

there's no problems with it just make sure its a lvl 2 and not a lvl 3 the only thing is that the km done will be diffrent
