I have the same one. Just peel the proform sticker off when you get it, and it looks alot nicer. Mine is mounted abouve the steering wheel. Not too hard to hook up, instructions come with it. The blue wire was kinda hard to find tho.

you can find the blue wire on the harness that is plugged into the tach behind the cluster....all you have to do is get a tester and touch the blue (naked) wire while the car is on.. if the needle jumps thats the wire you want...
there are 2 blue wires on the harness that plugs into the tach so you may have to test them both...only 1 will make the needle jump
hope this helps

a tester is something you use to test for current..
http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...%5Fid=22%2D112

just put the alligator clip on a metal part of the car (ground) and use the pointer thingy and stick it into the wire....do that to both of the blue wires...1 of them should make the needle on the tach jump..
you will see on the tester if you are getting any power or not
