Thumbs up Update on Tachs

I found a 5" Autometer Monster tach with shift light for $102. Anywhere else i've looked they are over 200. Or maybe i read the other prices wrong and they've always been 100? Who knows....

Those lights are pretty though. In the day it's even bright much less at night. It helps quite a bit though. You can keep your eye on the road instead of your RPM's.

Yeah...I think the idea behind them is awesome...but if you know anything about electronics...charging someone 200 dollars for how they work is insane.

I guess it's a good thing I don't know much about electronics.

I want one really bad. Just because I think it would look cool. I already have an RPM range, but a tach like that is just cool lookin.' Of course I can get one for about $30.
