umm take the tach back in the box to the store where you bought it and get a raptor shift light. 5 inch tachs look like **** in our cars.

Tap into pin #48 then you have to buy a vtec sticker for the car and the tach will work perfect.

Wow, I haven't posted on this site in months, and nothing has changed. Someone asks for help and they get answers like that. It is pin 48 at the PCM (behind passenger-side kick-panel) and the wire is orange/white.
