Default Just finished installing my Raptor shift light

Just finished up the install of my Raptor shift light while watching some playoff hockey. Had a little helper...



I went with the stealth look and put it in the air vent




And a quick test...

they come with very detailed instructions. there are only 3 wires- a ground, a 12v, and the one that reads the rpms. you run them to the kick panel on the pass side of the car. Took less than an hour to do the whole install. I bought it off ebay but several places sell them. Very easy to set too.

Yah there is a dial on the light to set the rpms. Price is right around 100. I have seen them for as low as 85.

Well if you look at the pics in my first post you'll see its Green. I am not a fan of red. I ended up getting mine for $65 shipped.
