Default A shift light? AutoMeter 5340

Ok a question to the pros...

I'd like to add a shift light to my 06 GT w/5speed. Looking at the AutoMeter PDF for installing it it seems somewhat straight forward but...
(There's always a but) the #5340 installation says the "green" whire is attached to the electronic ignition tach trerminal???
Help!!! Where is the tach terminal & even more importantly can it even be done? Or is it if I want a shift light I have to attach a whole new free standing tach?[sm=dontgetit.gif]

Thanks in advance for the help.

Get a Raptor. No tach adaptor necessary. Just connects to the green wire on one of your coil packs.

I have the raptor also.
To run the Autometer light, you'll need a tach driver. That's another $60 for you to spend...

Ok then...Having checked out the Raptor website it looks like they are THE way to go.

Thanks much for the help!
