Why would you need that shift like to being with? If you know your truck, you know when to shift.

Then why not a quality tac h instead of a light..Are you really gonna be so into racing your wheeling truck that you wont be able to see your tach? I know i can see mine out of the bottom of my eye even when watching the road..

actually... the guy who had my truck before put this small steering wheel on it.. and when i have it adjusted all the way down i can't see my tach. i don't really plan on racing my truck too much so maybe i don't need this shift light but hey <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> it'll look cooooool <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> i should really change out the steering wheel seeing as how a bigger steering wheel is better for rock crawling. right? i have my truck torn apart i just can't wait to get it together. i figured throwin in a little shift light b/c i came across it for such a cheap price. now i have an msd rpm switch for um anything else i may want to do in the pfuture. maybe some NOS?? i dunno i just want to smoke some 50 thousand dollar cars with my POS hooptie i have 4 grand into.
