Default Shift light

Where is a good spot to hide a shift light but that can still be seen easily?

you could try and mount below the dash by your knee, but it would probably be hard to see. you could install an a-pillar with a guage mount but it definetly wouldn't be hidden.

You could put it behind an a/c vent if you want it hidden. I have seen it done many times any is still ver visible. It actually looks pretty bad *** when the light comes on.

I would like to put it in the AC vent on the left of the steering wheel but the vent looks to small to put a shift light in it
