Whats a good bang for buck shift light?

Obviously Defi would be the best, but any other brands?

2 colors is good enough for me..


A Defi Tacho with Shift Lamp, would be nice, but too much rice for me considering I have a tacho already.

gizzmo shift light!

The Gizzmo Dual Stage Shiftlamp utilises a polished blue anodised aluminum casing to host a matrix of ultra-bright LED’s. The two-colour LED matrix provides an unmistakable indication as to which rpm stage has been reached. The first stage illuminates the yellow ultra-bright center LED. The second or final stage illuminates the outer ring of 6 ultra-bright red LED’s signaling the change point.The Gizzmo dual stage shiftlamp only requires a basic 3-wire installation, and uses a simple two-button configuration for its operation.

i've got the pivot one, more than accurate enough just plugged into the cigarette lighter tho it can be wired into the ecu if need be. well made and easy to fit.

How does it monitor RPM from the Cigarette lighter? lol

I want to mount it properly, preferably off my Hondata S200 if possible...?

Change in Voltage...

As the engine revs higher the alternator makes more power

Wow, sounds really accurate :thumbsup:

not 100% all times tho... but if u want 100% accurate all times, hook it up to the RPM sensor on the ECU or in the engine bay.
