Like the title says, where is a good place to mount an Autometer Shift-light in my 94 Cobra? Also, any pic's of that would be great. Thanks

I put mine on the a-arm. But I was going to put it on the steering column but it was bigger than expected. I have also seen them in the little area under the radio.
Heres a pic of mine. Ive since moved it up a little more and rean the wires completely through the a-pillar so no wires are showing.

LOL, how would it be hard to see when its right in your face as opposed to in the A/C vent? I hope you were being sarcastic.

I hope so too!
How can you have a hard time seeing a bright light that is no more than 2feet away from you and is shining into your pupils?

It would be pretty tricky to see a shiftlight which is mounted below your brakes /fender/k member.....
