Default Where's the tach wire

Hi guys, can someone tell me where a tach output wire is under the hood of a 00 C5 coupe. I need it to hook up my NOS window switch. I'm hoping its not under the dash. Thanks, adown

If you don't want to go under the dash, the pcm is located behind the passenger front wheel. You'll find a plastic panel in the fenderwell. Turn the wheel and you can get to the screws. The two PCM are under there (basically under the Battery).
Pin 10, white wire.
