I just put one in, took a whole 5 minutes.

My question is.. my light still comes on, is this normal? I talked to my buddy that puts them on Vettes and he says the light never comes on in the Vettes so I'm curious. Anyone? TIA.

I havent seen that annoying little thing since I put in 4.11s
I'd say they could be a skip shift eliminator, a pretty expensive one though...

My light still comes on in my 99 vette and it did in my 95, on my 95 I just unplugged the solenoid which activated the CAGS.

I'm thinking a nice pair of snips are in order for that light... it's annoying.
