Guys with Shift Lights in here......

[jwlast]

For those with shift lights, which one did you buy, why and how do you like it? I had a Raptor a few years ago, seemed ok but I recall it being a pain to program.

And how/where did you mount it? Noted a couple threads had some ideas, looking a pluck a few more. Any pictures are greatly appreciated.

Trying to keep the dash and pillar area looking stock and as uncluttered as possible is why I am looking for mounting ideas........:rolling:

TIA

Raptor is EASY. Speed of sound pillar mount and done. Don't like pillar then put it in the ac vent.

I use a Raptor with no issues. Mounted in the gauge cluster area.

Raptor with the Speed of Sound pillar mount, and love it.

 

[VenomSVT03]

I have the one with the launch control, love it. I have it between the speedo and the rpm gauge

Anybody using the Raptor dual launch/shift light?

 

[cobra4168]

I have the Raptor with launch control mounted between mph/rpm in cluster. Works great and easy to setup.

i have a raptor shift light and mounted it in the center a/c vent. works great and you can't see it til it comes on. ultimate stealth location.

 

[gabe1530]

raptor mounted near the gauge cluster area. looks and works great.

So for the Raptor launch/shift light, is it the 4 wire or 5 wire light?

Thanks

Can I see some photos of it mounted in the cluster? I want it to look stockish, so im interested in that

raptor mounted in the vent here. You will never know its there until I rev it up high. I have just the shift light in my Cobra but had the dual stage in a truck before and loved it. not hard to adjust unless you mount it somewhere difficult. But really once you figure out what rpm you want to launch/shift at, program it thats it.....

 

[supraman1990]

Would it be visible in the vent next to the door? Reason I ask is I have some of the Ironhand gauge pods to mount in the center. Thats why I was hoping for cluster mount.

lol... cant shift by the sound of the car i guess?

 

[supraman1990]

When Im on the drag strip all my attention is focused on fighting the wheel, hitting my gears, and watching the track. Id much rather have a bright light tell me to shift than having to listen to the car or keep an eye on the tach. Plus some of the cars you get next to make it near impossible to hear your car clearly enough. On top of that, i dont hear engine noise when the eaton is on full tilt

Raptor mounted on a bracket above my rear view mirror.

Ive got the aeroforce gauge taking advantage of the annunciation feature it has. :rockon:

 

[SVTwhore]

I used to have one of the auto-meter pill style lights in my old Fox. I mounted it down low off the bottom of the dash pointed towards my face. Like yourself, I like things tucked away out of sight. That said, I do like SLPRCTM's mount. Gets the job done and not all that noticeable.

I too have a raptor shift light. Mine is installed on the steering wheel column gauge pod.
