Default Nitrous activation light

I want to put an activation light on the dash. I want the light to only come on when the nitrous is spraying. Should I just wire in a light coming off the solenoid?

I am using this MSD window switch.

You could run it off your 'noid or off of you WOT switch. I've got mine hooked to my hobbs switch.

That is how I have my light too, off the FPSS. But I put my FPSS after the Fuel noid, so I know if I spray and the light doesn't come on, my Fuel noid did not open (for whatever reason).

That's how I have mine, I wanted to know exactly when the solenoids were getting power not just when my WOT switch is tripped. Got a blue activation light strapped directly on the side of the Harlan light in the vent.

Yep that's what I did, for both stages, bright green lights. They come on and off per the window sw (old sw panel in pic).
