a fat tach aint that bad ... i wouldn't do it myself but it does help.... my steering wheel blocks my vision to my tach in a turn all the time >< ... but yea, a shift light would be very useful. if you can seperate the shift light from the tach and mounted somewhere cool like behind the vents so it's super stealthy .. that'd be awsome.

there is this one lowered Black pre-bugeye impreza wagon in berkeley (looks riced out to me), and it has a big tach on the dash. he never waves so i hate him. i guess that means i hate big tachs too, i only see them on riced out cars. you will probably lose respect if you put it on. just my experience......

Don't get discouraged.

Put it on.

Put it in the headrest....heck, u should actually get another one and put it in the passenger headrest also.

It will be like screens, but more interesting

You'd be starting a trend..

plus there's really no room for it besides in the usuall spot by the A-pilar and windsheild... or "WINDSCREEN" if your from europe.

probably hard to tell behind my sarcasm, but what I also meant by "Subys ain't gotz VTECH, yo!" is that you don't need to rev out that high, even IF you have a modded/built motor. The stock tachs are fine.
