Full Digital Cluster Tach Relocation? December 17, 2009, 03:05:24 PM I did a search but couldn't find what I was looking for. I was curious is anyone had ever tried to make the digital tachometer work outside of the instrument cluster, like mounting it somewhere on the car. It doesn't seem like it would be too hard, I just wouldn't know how to go about it.It can't need a whole lot to operate, just the pickup from the distributor and a power supply. I would think. Anyone know? Tried it? Success or fail? Quote Selected

My neighbor pretty much did what you said a couple of years ago and the town saw it and fined him up the wazoo. Even woodstoves in garages are highly regulated... Its pretty hard. Quote Selected
Full Digital Cluster Tach Relocation? Reply #9 – December 20, 2009, 12:09:34 PM thats too bad you have to live like that. Mass has went dont the tubes over the years. I was in a town in FL and the law stated so much about noise pollution that even kids playing in the yard could cause reason for a neighbor to call the police. I Wash DC, all these houses built with fire places are pointless. People are regulated as to when they can light them up. Go figure! you pay for a house in that area and still you are not free to do as you like on your own property. Quote Selected
