Nordskog Update
Returned the digital Nordskog ($169 shipped).
They received it 07/03/06 and I STILL haven't received a refund!!! 5 emails later, and as many assurances that my card would be credited, I initiated a chargeback with my credit card company Moral of the story: don't buy a Nordskog unless you're absolutely going to keep it

no one flush mounted the tach on the glove box lid yet? that's something i'd consider- unless the angle is way too steep for easy viewing.
maybe that RS center gauge cluster is the way to go for a cleaner look, or that gauge pod that goes above the glovebox lid.

Holy Crap! OK So I just called my dealer. I have had my 07 Yaris Liftback for around 6 weeks. I miss having a Tach sooooo much. I called them, and like the other guy, they said the exact opposite to what the 1800 toyota people said. The wireing is totally different and they want $900 F***ing dollars for the part!
Further more, replacing my entire IP with one from say, Canada would void the warranty of th ENTIRE CAR! Adding an after market pod on the dash will void the warranty of what ever "wire" it is plugged into. I may still add a tach, but I will wait until my warranty expires in 55K miles. (Sigh). I love my Yaris and I still really like Toyota. I just wish they would be a little nicer about this stuff. And that I can not get the same answer from 2 different office. This also makes me wonder about other projects that I want to do to this car. I need to supply power to my little sub woofer when I get it, what does that do to my warranty? F-ing annoying. GRrrrrrr! - Kiteless |

Ive found over the years a lot of the cheap cars whether they are domestic or foreign 'typically' havent had a tach. Although on quite a few of these cars a Tach was offered on the more expensive trim levels.

I'm molding a tach gauge pod into the left corner around the a/c vent against the pillar right now, I'll post pics when it's done. It's for a 3-3/8" tach.

Okay, reviving an OLD thread here, but looks like GlowShift has addressed the problem with bright sunlight.

~or~ 2.) Buy a different car. ~or~ 3.)Sabotage. He's sporting at least 12 more HP than you, and that's if he's running stock. And it sounds like you have the automatic Yaris, which is about as quick as a turd rolling downhill (based on my test drive, anyway). Besides, what does it prove if he wins a goofy street race with a Yaris? Tell him he must have a small penis if he's proud of such accomplishments. ~YR
