Default Tach mounting options

I was just wondering what everyone had for an external tachometer, and where they mounted it. I dont have a cage so thats not an option, does anyone else have pictures or any other insight into the situation?

why do you need an external tach especially since you have an auto...?

If you need it, and want it thats fine... the picture above is about as good as it gets on these cars... do you have a manual valve body?

haha naw... i could definatly do without it, but, i want it. And it is true the stock tach is off, i can never tell where my car really shifts at, and when you rev the throttle there is alot of lag, theres a youtube video someware that shows just how far off the stock tach is, and its quite suprizing.
