I would like to install an A-pillar dual gauge pod from Glowshift with a tach and voltage. It must be gettin late
cuz i could of sworn i read somewheres that the glowshift gauges can be set to a 2 cylinder mode and therefore will work with the 2.2L however now I read that the lowest setting is 3 cylinder, which warrants a tach adapter UGH!!! Well, the cheap teenager in me wants to settle for an adapter such as

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-850511/ Would either of these work for what I'm trying to do??? If so, where would be a good place to install it???
Some might ask what's the need of a tach in an automatic slower-than-mollasses Cav but I miss not having one and I think it could help me take better care of my car and get better gas mileage.
Besides, I think it looks sort of cool--once again, the teenager in me

just swap clusters out of a 95-97 z and youll have a tach
I must agree... there is NO reason to put a Tach on your A Pillar...
my 02 has the tach in the cluster as all new models do... and i use the tach as much as if not more than the speedometer for driving (my cars a 5sp)
it would be ridiculous and out of place on the A Pillar and i could not see it easily without taking my eyes off the road. thats a safety issue we are discussing now.
go with Furious 2.2's advice and swap clusters kido.
im rockin some Glowshift gauges... i like them.
-Volts
-A/F
-Oil Pressure
Well.......
If I swap in a '95-'99 cluster that has a tach, won't there be some kind of issue with the mileage??? If so, wouldn't I have some issues when I try to sell it??? For a '95, my car is actually pretty low mileage at only 98,000 miles. So if I swap in a high mileage cluster that has, say, 175,000 miles won't I have some trouble explaining that it actually has way less than that???
