Hey guys,

I want to install a tachometer in my civic and I'm not sure which tacho to buy. Should I get the ones on ebay or the ones from repco or supercheap?

I'm willing to spend $100 or maybe a little bit more including install. How much does it cost for installation? Is it an easy DIY? I have basic electronics knowledge but I really don't wanna stuff anything up.

thanks in advance

it's for an eg civic breeze. i could spend $150 if that's wat it takes to get a decent one.

Sorry, I'll try searching next time :angel:

You should be able to just buy a EG cluster with tacho and it should plug and play

OEM Cluster > single aftermarket gauge.

Have a good look around and you should be able to find one in good nick and it'll look alot better then an aftermarket one.

AFAIK they're plug and play. tach signal is sent to the non tacho cluster for some funny reason lol.
