to start, i am sorry about posting this in the repair forum, technically is not a repair but if it would be all possible to get a response by the morning before i go to do these jobs it would be appreciated (i have searched the forum for previous posts)
I am gonna hook up my cheapo 30 dollar tach, and i have no idea where to put my signal wire through the firewall, i have also read about wiring through the stereo wires. Which wire in the stereo would i connect my White(backlight) wire to? And for using my cigarette lighter as + battery source, would i attach this wire directly to a lead from the cigarette lighter(if so which wire) and if to attach this wire to the fuse panel, how do i attach the wire?
One more thing, sorry, but i CANNOT get this darn tapedeck from a chrys. concord to work with the festiva wiring, i have run all the wires, but i have extras. Two wires, labeled Park, and ILL. Is this tape deck incompatable?
Once again i am sorry for not posting these all in the right areas, i am VERY busy this weekend and next week and will not have another chance to crack at it until next weekend.
Thank you all very much for your time and help (and patience), and thank you for making want to buy the car that EVERYONE told me not to buy, and the car that i have grown to love regardless of all comments and ALOT of money spent, i wouldn't want to drive any other car. I love my ugly and beat festiva.
