Default Autometer Pro Shift light install pics??
I have this shift light and was wondering where I could install it. It won't fit in the center ac vents. I was thinking either on top of steering wheel or next to a-pillar on the dash. Has anybody installed one of these and if so can you post up some pics of yours? I need ideas. thanks!

No pictures, but I've seen someone put it on top of the 'box' that the turn signal stalk goes into.

You could mount it on the A-Pillar...

...on the steering column

Are you sure it won't fit in the vent (AC, not Defrost)?
