first off, try to spell at least close to correct, its hurting my eyes.

second, its retarded to add a tach when you already have one. whats the purpose? if you can give a good reason other than to be ricey, then ill say go for it.

I think that it looks stupid, unless you have some serious power.

Otherwise, just get a shiftlight.

A big 'ol honkin tach on the dash would not be that cool. If there is a way to mount it to the steering column that would be a little better. If you just want some new gauges look into getting an a-pillar mount or search for custom installs such as in the vent openings. Oh and don't forget the punctuation mod as well.....j/k!
