While wire is it that you tap into for a tach on a 99?

Where do you get your tachs from?
I found this, http://www.deftracing.com/prosport_gauges/Tachometer_Analog_0-8000RPM_Super Blue_52mm.htm , what do you think of it?
I got mine form Ebay, but I decided I wanted to make the interior look stock. I will sell it to you for $20 shipped if you want.
how about any mystiques? IIRC they all came with tachs
I tried keeping it stock but I can't find a good console with a tach for my 98 zetec that works; I need a tach.
any pics?
anybody? I want to know what wire is the tach signal wire in the stock harness that plugs into the cluster. I want to check to see if I have the wire or not.
..........First you'll need to add a wire to the plug on the driver's side of the instrument cluster (the longer of the two plugs). Leave enough length on the free end of the wire to run through the firewall and back across the car...probably about 8-10 feet to be safe. The wire will need to be inserted in the 8th slot in the plug (counting up from the bottom) such that it will contact the pins when the plug is inserted into the new cluster. Don't worry, the pressure of the snapped-in plug will hold it.

I recon it's the #8 pin of the vertical connector. IIRC....
no remembr cause i did the samething and it didnt infact i tried it out of a 96 mystique too. you have to grab one from a post 98 tour like a mystique 4cyl i think the v6 post 98 works too i was told.Okay, so I wanted to do this right.
I went to a junk yard today and found a 96 Mystique I4, it had a cluster with tach, I pulled the cluster out of the car and found a 98 Zetec tour and pulled the cluster to find the wiring harness with the tach signal wire on it. So I cut out the harness, I took apart the harness and grabbed the Signal wire (so that I have no duplicates) and I added it to my harness, ran the signal wire and plugged it in, put the whole thing back together to get no tach activity and the speedometer and temperature gauge didnt work.
... Does a 96 cluster just not work in a 99?

the v6 tach will "work", but it won't give the correct read out, and if i remember correctly, the speedo won't work (atleast it didn't on mine)
