monster tachos

[Rowie]

yeh, a shift light is handy for dragging when you want to get the most out of the revs.....

I have a multi-stage shift light - it has six really bright LEDs, 4 are read, 1 is yellow, and the final one is green. They light up sequentially as you hit the desired RPMs.

I don't drag so it's useless to me until I get another car :lol:

How much is it for one of these shift light thingies? Is it a hassle to get it installed? Provided the price is within my budget, I'd love to have one installed on my car.

Thanks!

Yeah, actually i think a shift thingy would be good/fun. How much and all that???

[XXpl0Sive]

Around 150-200

[skoota]

Just for some lights???? Christ! :shock:

[XXpl0Sive]

Yep!

It measures the electrical charge in the tacho wire and lights up accordingly.

I just bought one fo those Gizzo dual stage shifft lights from autobahn.
Haven't hooked it up yet but should be on soon.

I've got a autometer monster tacho w/ shift light if anyone wants it. Looking for $220 firm.

Around 150-200

I guess that's a reasonable price. Whether or not I'd be willing to part with $150-200 for some shift lights is another matter.

Btw, how hard is it to wire it up? Is it a DIY job or something for the mechanic?

[XXpl0Sive]

DIY job
Just some basic electronic knowledge is required

yeah DIY job for sure! JayCar has a cheap kit for like.. $30 i think i bought mine for. You get 3 lights and you solder the thingy up. You can adjust all 3 lights to wherever you want them to go off at.. pretty simple. Stuff paying over $100... thats just ridiculous i reckon!
