you don't have to pull the dash apart. It shouldn't take 5 minutes to hook this thing up. YOu only have to take out the passenger side kick panel

i'm not positive it will work the same on the new edge GT's....but the #48 pin controls the factory tach. THe aftermarket will then read the exact same

the shift light is what I meant, so that goes to pin #48 too?
