I know you need the adaptor either from RKsport or Autometer. I soon too will be in the same boat and wondering how.

Why? Is this fast n furious? The factory one is fine and you don't need people in the other lane laughing at you. If It's a drag car then that's one thing

Trust me they will laugh

I have an auto with a tach and am still going to put a big tach in my car, i personally like the way it looks, so dont flame people for wanting to get one, and by the way how many times have you watched those movies i think you would have to watch them alot to know whats on the dashbooard on their cars, no offense.
