From Harlan in the F/I board he is Y2KHAWK in the moderator area! go to his web site! and order. NOTE: some times they take some time to get as they are hand made and he is very very busy! But ask anyone that got theres and they will tell you it was worth it!

Yeah I think the A-pillar is teh right place too but I mounted mine in the drivers side Air Vent. Its un-notiicable but when it lights up you see it perfectly. Mine is a raptor though not a harland I think there almost identical from the pics ive seen but I can be sure.

Here is a pic but its not my car. my LEDs are blue. BUt the location is the same. ALso, mounting this is SIMPLE with 2 small zip ties. Check it out:

True. Some people have waited months and months. I just got mine in last week and it only took 22 days.

My Raptor came in a matter of days. What are the difference between the two? I dont know what else I would want out of a shift light...... I think the # of LEDs are different, but is that all?

The Raptor has one more led, it's a little smaller in diameter, is made of aluminum instead of plastic, comes with a lens cover and mounting brackets and is $35 more than the Harlan. Other than that, they are both easily adjusted and probably work the same.

No pics, but I have a micro shift light mounted on top of the steering colum and it works great. There is no restriction on the gauges and I usually find myself looking at the stock gauges when racing, so I find myself looking right at it. It also lights up right in my face. Wish I had a pic for ya.

When you pull the colum down you can see fine. Alittle hard to see up to 40 or 50mph but everything else is wide open. I love mine there. At other places I didn't always see it, but now I see it all the time. I have mine double sidded taped down. No holes there. Mine has the chip plug in seperate so it doesn't sit quite as high on mine. Oh by the way Mike, nice interior.
