looking forward to replies, as I would like one on my 2000 as well..... I think full set of gauges, including a tachometer should be standard equipment on all vehicles, I hate idiot lights that might come on when its too late.... know whats going on could save a lot of money as well as vehicles from the junk yard....

Not an issue.. One wire to dist. and one to ground and one to dash lights.

Go to Sunpro site for instructions on V-6 and V-8 install.
