I got the shift light installed yesterday. It's screwed into the underside of the rear view mirror, next to the little switch that pops it up when the *******s with the high beams are behind you (which no longer works).

Eh, just gotta look away from it when I turn the car on. Otherwise I rarely even drive up to where it's set (5.2K) so it's not really a problem. I want it to be bright, though, when I want to shift.

What all do you have done to your car now? Last time I checked you were just getting a shifter for it.

LOL, it's been a while, then.

The light is pretty small, actually. At least length wise. I don't have a pic yet, but here's the link. Raptor I have the blue one.

no, we called ford to see if it was under any recalls, and they said no. but i do have an extended warranty and they are going to cover it, and tj gets to do the work. so thats one less thing to worry about

God those 4.6 liter intakes are FREAKY looking! Never looked around much at those modular motors...they're SOHC except for special models right?
