i got hold of a autometer rev tacho silver seris with shift light and now just wondering were to mount it? any one else got one??? any pics????

i think they can mount quite nicely in the bin :badgrin:

well magna 's has already in built tacho's y u need 1 more it only attract cops

Thats funny, never knew tachos attract cops

Keep the shift light, piss the tacho off, you already have a stock tacho, why do you need another one?

As for attracting cops, yes, tachos do attract cops.... :cry:

EDIT: Just looked at your profile mate, you have an auto, why do you need a tacho and shift light at all??

Actually, why does any street car need a shift light?

ACTUALLY -

hows about we give some support, and just answer the question :)

if he wants a shift lite, let him have one...

hey bloke, your best bet is mounting it in the corner of the A pillar and the dash..

:)

wasnt that hard guys, was it :)

BOoya

good call Ben, his question didnt say every1 tell me that tachos suck, especially on autos




the A piller is the easiest, if u have a 3rd gen, it should just unclip, go from the top down ( if the a piller is the plastic strip thinggy next to the front windscreen :) )

once you have it out, the easiest thing is to test where u wnt it, drill and hole in the plastic a piller mount thinggy...and screw it on, dont screw it on excessivly tight, as the plastic will change shape, and you wont be able to get it back into place.

hope this helps

maybe in ur planet but it does here specially if its a monster one

So you can keep your eyes on the road instead of the tacho during the traffic light grand prix! :badgrin:

On another note - has anyone looked inside at the build quality of the tachos whose manufacturers name begins with A? The soldering is abyssmal, had one in to fix as a foreign order, (peak hold died) and ended up retouching just about every joint...

You're such a kill joy ;)

I agree with what you're saying though.. these days I can accellerate to a given speed limit completely subconsciously without looking at the speedo just by the sound of the engine. I am so clever.

Stop on booya. guys if the bloke wants a tachno let him have a tacho, its not up to you to judge whether he needs one or not so get over it and help him out :D

It i was mounting it I would have it on the dash near the A Pillar.

You're such a kill joy ;)
I try :P

on a slightly related note,

anyone know where i can get a small shift light ? i too sometimes enter into the so called traffic light grand prix, and it would be good to have it flick on at about 5500rpm to i can change a little after that, also, at the drags it would be good to even set it to 3000-3500 rpm, so u can focus on the tree instead of the tacho lol

ps. they r cool an r a worthy addition to any fwd family sedan lol


later :cool:

Not sure what your budget is, but have a look at this thing (http://www.autospeed.com/cgi-bin/browse.cgi?product=2005910001&). There are a couple of others in the autospeed shop too. Just search for shift light.

me thinks im going to have to invest in one of these!!! :cool: very cool

but to all you guys who think tachos are a waste off time!

you just wish you had the money to spend and also to the same guys if you are scared of police looking at your car. just dont bother modding your car and get off the forums because i think you are just little girls. maybe you can go put some fully sick stickers on your car or sumthing and just keep the hub caps on. soft cocks.

Out of line

If you don't agree with something someones ssays, just ignore it. All **** like this does is start flaming threads with are a total waste of time.

Basically, get over it dude

wish i had more money to spend to afford my ralliart and for the cops im not scared of them just dont want them in my payroll now if u want to do it so be it. just dont rant about i got fined here and there....

i dont see what the big deal with tachos is, i have an autometer monster tach hanging off my a pillar, allong with a couple other gauges, cops dont bother me.

my car is loud, low, noisy, has 18's etc and i never get pulled up and im usually out cruising town most nights, and i hardly go easy on it usually you hear my car comming a mile away.

i have only ever had a couple of fines, 1 was for undue noise when my car was a standard auto and i came arround a corner a little quick, and i think i had one for blue undercar neons (this was a while back when they were cool) and 1 for the 10.4in touchscreen that is attatched to the center of the dash ( i didnt have it hooked to the handbrake, oops :badgrin: )



so bro, if you want a dirty great monster tach, get one, and shift lights are heaps of fun. :D

Out of curiosity, what drove you to attach a big arsed monster tacho? Or doesn't the TS come with a tachometer standard?

Gee, someones woke up on the wrong side of the bed....

[B]BTW: Thanks for the abusive PM you sent me, i really appreciated it...

that ain't cool :doubt:

What? What i said or the fact that he abused me in a PM?

cheers man that was all i was after not any little crys about cops or how gay they look. My question said i got a tacho dirt cheap and what are some suggetions about were to mount it. Everyone is ready to critisize on this forum and there are only a few good people left who are helpful not negative.

Stop on booya. guys if the bloke wants a tachno let him have a tacho, its not up to you to judge whether he needs one or not so get over it and help him out :D

no i didnt wake up on the wrong side of the bed. its just that eveything i post and everything i read on the forums, i keep hearing critics we are asking for advice wether it looks good or how it go's. not critics who winge and mone. i just think that people should just enjoy the forums not carry on like ****heads. go take a look at other car forums it is all constuctive imformation without the winging.


thanks aussiemagna.

...go take a look at other car forums it is all constuctive imformation without the winging...


Not true.

Supraforums is full of sarcastic, know-it-all, 'elite' ****heads. This forum is extremely good compared to others I have frequented.

But its true what you say, you should've gotten an answer to your question, not a thread full of other peoples opinions on monster tachos.

Just put it on the A-pillar, it's a bit 'commo-racer-style', but it works, and thats where I had mine before I sold it.

jilted - just noticed your sig lol

awww... thats soo sweet..... - are you mocking me :doubt:


lol

I've got to agree, on the most part, the people on this forum are extremely supportive, friendly and endeavour to answer any question, no matter how obvious or silly it is, or how many times it's been asked before. :P

A lot of other forums I've been on flame people that ask basic questions, or abvious ones and are not very supportive of their members. A little too elitest for my tastes.

Out of curiosity, what drove you to attach a big arsed monster tacho? Or doesn't the TS come with a tachometer standard?


The tacho i got off a mate for cheap, and i wanted the shift light, plus the new tach is easier to see. it adds a bit of rice to the car but **** happens, also adds to the wow factor when people look in the car at all the gadgets and stuff in there

no problem bro,

its kinda sad that whatever ya do these days someone is gunna winge and complain about it. (im used to this sorta crap, i deal with it on a daily basis) its especially bad when it comes to car mods, no matter what it is someone will say "why would you bother" etc

magna drivers get enough of that from others let alone fighting amoungs ourselves.

:rant: :rant:

lol

It's true, I am.

Does your religion offer a place of forgiveness where I may go and repent my sin of blasphemy against the golden and over-done religion of Boya-ism?

:badgrin: lol

Would you believe, hes sending me an abusive PM every day now! Just for my opinion, persistent or what :S

Would you believe, hes sending me an abusive PM every day now! Just for my opinion, persistent or what :S

One way to stop such action is a PM flood. Flood all who dare disrupt the pure flow of goodwill within the AMC oracle of information lol

No need for the abuse, also no need to critisise, just answer his question.

He knows where to mount the tacho now. /thread
