I have a 5" Proform tach with 4-wire hookup that I want to install on my 2003 GT. Anyone know where the tach lead goes??

I believe you need a tach adapter for our vehicles, however somebody in another thread said it is located behind the instrument cluster and is either orange/white wire or tan/yellow, but take that for what it's worth.

If you try searching through some old threads you may find more info.

Yeah you do need a tach adapter. The hookup to the computer is under the passenger kick panel and then a + and - I believe.

You know, a while back when I watched your post count go over 1000 or so, I thought to myself, "Self, I've never seen a single post by this dude. Where are his posts coming from?"

But tonight, my inner tension caused by your mysterious post count boost disappeared, when I went through 30+ threads, and saw one liners like that in nearly every one.
