Hi,

Can anyone give me directions on how to install a tachometer in a Meteor (GC) GL wagon? and send me a link to one that I could buy.

Any help would be great!

Thanks

Default Re: Installing a tachometer Meteor (GC) GL wagon

Hi. cant recall ever putting a tacho on a GC (or a KC laser) but I dont think there will be any problems as the ignition system is a normal type of coil and a distributor so you can get a signal from the negative side of the coil. The best way to do it would be to transplant the cluster (may need the whole dash) from a laser as most of them had a factory tacho. You may need to add wiring to your dash to get a factory tacho to work. Cheers MD
