I was suprised at how easy the install was - just power, ground, and tap into two wires in the ecu which is right under the glove box, to get tach/speedometer. I'm really happy with how it looks, and how accurate it is. I am still deciding where to mount it - I'll probably keep it where it is, i haven't drilled or made any permanent modifications, it just wedges into the compartment infront of the steering wheel, which is pretty much useless anyways...what do u guys think about that location?

For more info on the revspeed meter:

i think it would look good there if you filled that area in with some kind of face-plate that accented or matched the dash color.....

i read the info on it on your web site, you have a lot of nice gear there!

btw, what do you use it for? i see it has a lot of functions.....thanx.....

Thats a good idea - One of the manufacturers we work with is about to start selling sheets of carbon fiber, that can be used for various applications, i'll probaly fill that area with a piece and mount the meter into that - for a cleaner look.

No but that's awesome - I was going to get the Camp, to hook into my in-dash LCD monitor - I definately want to see pics once that's installed! PM me w/ the wires u need, but basically the black wire on the right plug of the ECU under the dash is the tach wire, and the speedo is the wire next to it.
