Default Who mounted a Shift light on there pillar?

Looking for pictures of shift lights mounted on the pillar. I was thinking about buying a quick light from autometer and mounting it on the side of the pillar. Would like to see pictures if anyone has done this

I've got my Harlan shift light mounted in my defroster vent in the a-pillar. Stealth, effective and very clean.

Thats how i plan to do mine.

I forget who makes it, but the one i was looking at is like a 4 stage shift light, seems like a pretty fancy idea.

It's for the line lock. It goes on when it's armed.

Thanks!

It's a Harlan Shift Light. Great Product!

It's an Autometer pod. I got it at a local shop, but I'm pretty sure you could find it on the Summit website, or any supporting vendor.

I remember looking at his gauges before, but i guess the autometer one, would better match my other autometer gauges.

I have a autometer shift light with the digital tach on my pillar, I will see if I can find some pictures of it when I get home. If I could do it all over again I would use a harlan shift light in the defroster vent thuogh, it looks much cleaner.
