It really doesn't look bad, but it's still a third arm. You don't need it. Maybe just a shift light on the column.
When I get a procharger I plan to have air/fuel, fuel psi gauges, but I'll just keep my stock tach. It's slow in 1st & 2nd gear, but I know where the engine is.

Good job taking it out. I'd look into putting a Raptor Shift Light in your pillar vent:
