More importantly, what CAR? Do we need a tach driver? Or are you still driving "old school" like myself? Old School is easy to hook up, but we need some more information.

Car?
Tach?
Ignition system?

That'll do it!!!

Hook the green wire to the neg. side of the coil. Black is ground. Red is 12v switch. White is the illumination wire. Hook this to a wire that is only hot when the lights are on.
