Im getting ready to install my autometer tach in my 93 Civic and I know pretty much what all the wires connect to. But running wires has never been my specialty. Whats the most logical way to run the wire for the the tach signal out the the shock tower?

Double check my skills:
Black - ground (bolt for the hood release)
Red - power (12v hot in fuse box)
White - lights (dimmer switch)
Green - Tach signal (Blue wire on drivers side shock tower)

sounds good


are you asking if those are good locations to get the wires? or literally how to run them through the dash/out the firewall?

both, but more about running them out through the dash.

if u look under ur hood on the firewall there is a whole cut in the firewall and there is like a rubber cover over it with wires running through it i just popped it off adn ran the wires through there

uh, doesnt your car already have a tach? you could just tee off the cluster. since you would just tee it off at the dizzy anyways. its the same wire:beer:

ont put a tach in it if you already have one ......if this is a " race car" then gop ahead but if not sell it

got it done...thanks to rattmann for all the help via AIM. My stock tach is very jumpy but its not the ignitor so i just use this one for accuracy but it is a track car.
