My brother and I did the install yesterday on my 2009 LB and I just wanted to note a few differences.
1. Tach wire on the OBD is tan but in the same bottom left location. 2. The dimmer wire that I used was one of the two brown wires. I chose the darker one and it works perfectly with the light switch (on with the headlights, off without). 3. I used an add-a-fuse with the #22 slot. Thanks for the info on this thread! |

Does anybody market a really small tach? One with an analog (needle) display?

I bought this at autozone for 30 bucks...2 and 3/8". thats as small as i think would be practical. Any bigger would also be a little "boy racer" for my taste. In my online research i think i saw some watch-like tachs selling for way too much.

Does that interfere with the driver's glovebox at all?

definately not the same wire colors as my '09. good writeup though, it did help me get to where i needed to get to. the new tach signal wire is in its original location but is now light brown

I'm excited to get a tach and put it in now, but am missing one last detail. What do I set the redline at? I just want to know how high in the rpms that I can ride up into without redlining. I have an 07 liftback 5 spd if that makes a difference.

my first mod... i had to share. anyway i'd like to say this thread helped but i guess i'm just not that handy with this type of stuff. paid someone to do this... i think it turned out well. i didn't realize how much overkill an 8000rpm tach would be but oh well it's on there now.
