Default "Need Help on installing a Tach."

Hi, I'm a new owner of a Scion XB and everything is just great except for the the factory tach is so small. I'm plan on installing a stand-alone tach, but not quite sure on how to get the signal for the rpms, could anyone give some advice on this, thanks

when you choose the tach there will be directions on where to run the wires

I am a car audio/alarm installer, and I installed a remote start on my XB, which needs to learn the tach signal. The tach wire I used is Black and located at the data link connector ( OB2 Plug) below the fuse box- pin #9. I believe there are 2 black wires in there, just try both to see which one works, luckily I got the right one on the first try or just use a digital multimeter to test. Hope this helps.
