This might sound weird...but does it come with a cover like the standard shift lights...for street driving?
With the push button menu, you can select from 16 different brightness levels and 7 different colors.

That's a cool new toy Scott!!! I thought about getting one of those, but I'd have no place to put it. I do have a shift light dead center in front of me though, so I'm hoping I'm not missing out too much. The car is never done, is it?

lol, nope, never done. I was worried I was making more work for myself by drilling a 2" hole in the dash for the new location of the wideband... I was hoping that I didn't tear up the paint, and fortunately it went well.

Wow Scott there is no way you should miss a shift with that light! Corey Hart must have been able to see the future when he wrote the song Sunglasses at Night.

That is a nice setup. It looks like you have a lot to keep track of..... I put a DPIC gauge there. It is really easy to glance down while driving.

Mine was cool until it shorted itself out internally, caught fire, and shot smoke at my face while I was driving in the rain.

I had to pull over and rip the DPSS off the column and yank the wires out to keep it from catching fire.

Not fun, I still haven't replaced it.

I haven't set the night time intensity yet, but yep, I'd need some serious shades. LOL

Cool. How do you like the DPIC?

Really? Didn't you have it on a fused circuit?
