tach wire for 2008 cobalt ss t/c

Did you splice the msd tach into the purple and keeping your factory tach? I would like to see pics of the wires and the tach. Where did you mount it, rpd would kinda be in the way if you got one

why didnt u just take ur insterment cluster out, a few screws, poke a mutimeter into the back of the connection and rev ur engine, try each one till u get the tach, much easier and reqires less wireing. thats how i did my talon, took 5 minutes.
