Default Shift Light Question

Those of you with the shifter lights, are they easy to set-up? Do you have to have a predator tune to set it up? Where did you order it? I want one asap. Thanks.

I personally like the Raptor shift light. I've been using it for a while and am happy with it. You don't need a tuner, just install and you can use dials on the side to adjust at what rpm you want it to light up. really easy to use.
You can check them out here.

raptor is a self contained unit, you dont need a monster tach, or external unit. very easy to install, its only a few wire connections. i think with the S197 you have to run a wire through the firewall. thats the hardest part.

black raptor with yellow LEDs in the air vent is the ONLY way to do it.

Raptor in the A/C vent for me.

Very easy install as follows:
-Set your RPM's on the Raptor
-Find where you want to place it
-Tap into fuse on passenger side kick panel with one wire
-Tap into coil with another wire (don't use the red one)
-Ground the final wire!
