Default What Tach/Windshield ??

&nbsp\\;I am new as you can see. I have looked in the search section for an ans. and didn't see anything. (maybe I missed it?)
&nbsp\\;Anyhow, is a combo tach/speedo truly a plug and play or does a tach signal wire (#3 on ecm) need to be hooked up and supplied to it? Another thing , what do most prefer, mini tach or combo type?
&nbsp\\;One last thing, any tips on a quick release windshield? Will a 57199-05 work on my 07 train with out moving the turn lamps below the lower tree? any other suggestions would be appreciated.&nbsp\\; Thanks

I just installed the Combination Speedometer/Tachometer - Color-Matched Lighting on my '07 Heritage Classic. It took a total of about 5 minutes, and yes it is P&amp\\;P. I did not want anything on the bars, and with the 500 color selections it matches perfectly.
