Default Tach mounting question

I've been thinking about adding one of the 5" aftermarket tachs to my car but they're no way I'm gonna drill holes in the dash. Is there any other way of mounting it like say some kind of velcro?

What do you need a tach for? Just get a small shiftlight like the Harlan one, that is what I'm doing. I can't stand the look of a big gay *** tach in a street car.

I don't think my tach is exactly accurate. I hit my limiter anywhere from 66 to 6800.

the gauges themself may be slow but the shiftlight should read the signal faster.. as long as you have it set right you shouldn't have any problems

NO need to bolt it down... I installed mine right next to the A-pillar and tucked the wiring inside... it does not move at all. A small piece of velcro will work as well.

I wonder if putting my tach there would interfere with my a pillar gauges?
