      An injector can be used as a signal. Or at the coil. Let me post a picture of when I installed my remote starter. A website had a picture of the cluster wiring harness and which wire was the tach signal. I'm at work right now but I'm sure I saved that pic somewhere.

      It's the white wire, in front of the yellow and brown one. Don't cut it, just splice into it.

      There are different types of scotchlok connectors, get the t-tap type... I know Radioschack has some in different sizes... most of auto parts stores have just 16-18 gauge size for whatever reason... your local audio shop might have some though.

      You can see what they look like and how to install them here: http://www.safe-n-sound1.com/POWER%20TAP%20HELP.html
      As AveoRob mentioned, use PROPER gauge.
