Tachometer Column Mount for a 66 coupe?
I've seen it before, but I can't find one now. I'm looking for a gauge mount that will allow me to mount an aftermarket tach to the steering column in my 66 mustang. I've seen the Rally Pac, but that's not what I'm looking for. I recently redid the wiring in my car and put after market gauges in using the stock bezel, but only the standard 5 gauges. Now, I'm upgrading to a T-5 from a C4, and I'm not ready to redo the instrument panel yet. I just want to add a tach to the steering column for the time being. Has anyone seen what I'm talking about? Thanks.
2+2GT is right, most aftermarket tach's will mount directly to the steering column with a radiator hose type clamp. Here's a pix of ours during assembly:

We have since removed the tach as we don't race the car and now that we've run it for a while, don't need to monitor it for shift points and redline. We did leave a quick disconnect harness hidden under the dash in case we want to re-install it at a later date.

Thanks guys. I feel silly. I guess I should have checked the Autometer website first thing. I spent so much time doing searches for some sort of aftermarket type mount that it never even crossed my mind to just check the Autometer website. I went with Autometer Phantom gauges in dash, and that's what I plan on using for the tach as well. I don't really like the look of the radiator hose clamp, but I'm sure I'll be able to find something equivalent that won't require me drilling holes in my steering column. Thanks again fellas!
