Where does everyone have their Shiftlight Mounted??
Im talking about the single shiftlight not the ones that come with the 5 " tach. Where is yours mounted, i was thinking to put my proform on the corner of the top pad but im afraid someone might break my window to take it. I also saw someone fab up to put it inside one of the pod by the A-pillar anyone ever try that? any pictures are good

Here's mine, it doesn't really matter where, cause during the day it will light up good, and nite, I'm sure people wonder what the heck it going on. Some have it under the center heat vents.

The idea is to put it where you don't have to glance away from the strip to look. So somewhere like where Mark has his is perfect. If you have a cowl hood, you might be able to fit it under the cowl if you have a cross piece on your hood at the normal hood height.

Here's mine, I hooked it to the steering column. It doesn't block any of the indicator lights, and it's bright enough, that being down low isn't a problem. I mounted the RPM switch down on the passenger side of the radio console.
BTW: Why does everyone have their T-handle turned at like 45 degrees? (Compare Mark's pic to mine)

I thought the same when my Dad put the handle on like that. He said that's how they used to do it in the day. And also it fits the hand better at an angle, you ought to try it.
