Default Shift Light Advice

Has anyone done a shift light in their 197? I could certainly use the help catching the next gear (prior to the rev limiter, of course) now that the car is reving faster. I'd like to install one that isn't too noticeable but still usable. Do you need a tach signal generator?

The Raptor is the only way to go if your looking for small easy to install light. Three wires to connect. Go to their site.Instructions for install on 05-07 are there. Price $85.00.
