Default Is there an install write up on the Raptor shift lite?

Just got mine in. Never have done much electrical in a car. Search turned up nothing. I want to put it in the driver side defrost. Just not sure about wiring. Ground to wherever, power from a pink wire, but not sure about the green wire. Thanks in advance.

it's simple guys. just open the casing that the three small wires come wrapped in and connect them however you choose to to their 3 destinations

black wire- can go to any ground source, which basically means any connection ending in a clean, non-charged piece of metal. i soldered mine into a ground wire that I found under the center console.

red wire- power wire, and this needs to connect to any 12v power source, I soldered mine into the pink wire going into my TCS switch

green wire- is the rpm sending wire, this wire needs to connect with the rpm sending wire on the pcm, which i believe is pin 12?, i'll go check right now..

rpm input wire goes the white wire pin #10 on the bottom plug for the pcm, theyre all labeled once you take the gray cover off of the connector itself

oh, and if you want to put it in the small round vent on the driver's pillar, Spectre sells a grommet at Autozone that is absolutely perfect for the job
here's a pic

Thanks for the tips. Under the Stereo and Electronics section, there are several write-ups. I will do mine tomorrow when I get a grommet.

When your shift light is in that little air vent, do you have to cut up that air vent behind it to get the wires to fit?

No. You can make it fit. Push it down and it'll get stuck.. you'll see what I mean when you try. I have wires for my V1 radar detector, gauge, and shift light.. it's a little crowded but works fine.
