Bosch SP0F000025 Sport II 2-5/8" Tachometer (Black Dial Face, Black Bezel)

Bought this for my ‘66 VW Beetle, perfect size for the limited space I’m working in. Great instructions, column mount bracket worked great, everything I needed was included, works perfect.

Installed in my 95 F150, and works perfectly.

After trying two different brilliantly lit LED tach's, having their measurements jump and inaccurate, I tried this name brand moderately priced tach. It was simple to install, with steady, accurate measurements from the start. If you want a working tachometer, and can do without the colorful displays, this is what you want.

Works awesome, seems accurate to the ear. Isn’t laggy at all. Very easy to install and comes with great instructions and hardware. My only complaints about are that I wish the mount was shorter, is a bit tall for the size of the gauge itself and made placing it difficult in my ‘89 S10 (opted for the pillar), light could be a little brighter for night driving, gauge is fogging up but I’m not blaming it due to it being right by the window and also a vent but figured I’d mention it. Overall I would buy it again.

I installed this on my VW Camper Van and it was a great install. The face is small enough that it could fit between the A pillar and the dash cluster. It wired nicely and was very self explanatory. Just remember to thread the nut onto the wire loom FIRST before making all the connections. *DOH* I had to do it twice because of this little set back, however that was OK.I like that it sets to "0" when the engine is off. My other tach does not do that so this is refreshing. The unit feels fit and well built. The back light is decent and works well to light the face. The red line is easy to set and effective as a marker for your limit.Overall, this was a good purchase. I look forward to purchasing another one.

Great tach for my air cooled vw

I bought this just to be able to adjust my trucks idle and high idle speeds, install was easy and didn't even take an hour. It reads well and works great. The light on it is a little dimmer than I'd personally like, and I wish the lines marking every 100 RPM's were more separated, it's hard to read by a quick glance when driving. But, it sure served it's purpose, and I still use it after 3 ish months. Still works perfectly as it should.

Update: Device failed after three months of use. It now rotates counter-clockwise when I start the engine, settles at 5500 rpm, even though the idle is ~ 800 rpm. It doesn't move when I press on the accelerator, and it slowly drifts to 4500 rpm. I've checked all connections, they are good. I even opened up the gauge to see if the wires had de-soldered from the printed circuit board; they had not.Installation instructions were very easy to follow. I already had an easily accessible hole in my firewall, so cable routing was simple. It is best that you have a wiring diagram of your vehicle on hand, as these instructions direct you to attach certain tachometer wires to other wires which a) are powered only when the key is in the 'run' position, and b) are only on when your dash lights come on. The latter is only necessary if you want the tachometer light to work.I compared the accuracy of this to the method I was using before, which was to use a reflective strip on the crankshaft pully illuminated with a light which also senses the reflection. As this tach takes the signal directly from the coil (you have to select the number of cyliders with a switch on the back of the tach), I assum this is more accurate. However, they both gave the same answer, if anyone is interested to know.
