i'm thinking about mounting it under my dual gauge pod on the dash where that little vent is.

which one are you using and where is it mounted?

i was planning on getting a raptor shift light and putting in on the steering column.

i also thought about getting a phantom tach/light with the upr tach bracket.

but the total cost for both options would be more then i would like to spend.


oh i love those seats by the way

I moved it up a little so its more in my face. Its too big IMO though. Im gonna wire an LED to it and hide the big part behind the dash, and drill a hole in the drivers side of the clock face and put the LED there.

I went with the MSD Digital light. I like it quite a bit. It is nice to be able to change each shift point with the push of a couple buttons. Plus it is nice and small so it hardly covers any of my gauages.



This one is kinda blurry, buy you get the idea.

I have a Cobalt C2 tach with a blue shift light and had a guy with me one night and he had a G-tech Pro, we did the first test run and when the light came on he yelled cops, cops! You definately know when it comes on and everyone around you knows when to shift LOL.

Dan-I'm using the one you posted the pic of. Have some pictures of it I can email to ya, and I'm gonna update my cardomain site with interior pics this weekend if you want. It is on the column, not obtrusive at all.

BTW I'm using a blue light and cover though..

hey bill302,

thats where i want to put mine. right under my gauge pods. it looks like the autometer has a better looking stand for the proform but i like the fact i can just turn the knob on the back as opposed to having to buy new pills to select RPM
