Very easy as all the wires you need are there already.
I mounted mine on the steering column so the wires can run under the cluster. There will be 4 wires, pos, neg, light and tach. All easy

easy the wire that norm goes onto the coil you will find in you loom on the right side (passenger side there are two plugs, go to the main plg and you will find the brown wire from the loom splice into that wich is the coil wire it will save you the trouble of trying to hook it up onto the coil. the rest are your earth light power wires.

First, check your transmission, if it's an Auto and your fitting a tacho with a shift light, then you're in trouble.

Almost as funny as the people that fit the fake cross drilled looking discs, with no cailper in sight, over drum brakes. Frickin priceless. Almost as funny as the Magna I once saw with a massive Cannon exhaust and hub caps.
