why in the world would you want to have a monster tach!? Sorry, but that's just nuts to me. Looks rediculous.

I think I am gonna get one, on the fact that our regular tach is way down from teh windsheild. I feel it would be easier to catch your shifts right with a tach up on the dash...

I don't think they look ridiculous!
I really like em, i had one on my civic and it was great. It really helped me when at the track, real accurate too.

The shift light was awsome!

I have a shift light that plugs directly into the cigarette lighter. It has 2 knobs to adjust the brightness and the RPM at which it engages. The light itself is about the size of a penny and is about 1/4 inch thick. It's made by a Japanese company called PIVOT. I got it for $100 and it's very much worth it.

I have the older model but this one's is the new one they have. I don't have the display on mine. It's on ebay. Search up PIVOT SHIFT LAMP. There's only one on there. They sell it here in toronto but I don't know the price.

I just installed my monster tach last night it took like 4 hours those things can be a Bi@ch to put in. The tach looks great though.

Search up PIVOT SHIFT LAMP That's a cool tach. I am wondering though - Where do you mount the display? And where do you mount the light? Near the A-Pillar somehow?

what kinda tach is it (ie Phantom, carbon fiber),
If I was going to get those Autometer tachs, the only one that would even be a consideration is the "Lunar".

I mounted the light on the steering column and the control unit right under the cigarette lighter.
