    Never liked monster tachs myself, so sorry if my post is otherwise unhelpful.

    Yeah, Flighter they look very cool.....but I do need something with a shift light.
    Adrian, my car is a Mk1 so no vent on the right hand side, that does look great though.
    Glenn, yep I definatly need one with a shift light, it was hard to look at the tacho the whole time.
    Has anyone used the Type R tacho? I havent heard of them till I started looking.
     
    Thanks again.

    Smiths do a really good one with a shift light on the face
    http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/tachometers/smiths-prosport-f1-tachometer-with-shift-light
    various sizes and rpm limits, and will go in the standard dash tacho hole
