I am most impressed with Keith's new gauge company. I'm especially interested in their other products, such as their shift lights. I think I want one.

They have a pod-mounted style one, too:

I think I want the external tube mounted one.
Cool! The number in the gague- Does that reflect your current RPM or the shift point that is selected? I think I want one too;)
a little too flashy for me.
a good old 1 led shift light is all I'd need.
Actually I was thinking they weren't very flashy at all, compared to those big tachs with even bigger shift lights. These are smaller and contained, the extra lightage is just easier to see, without requiring lots of space. I suppose you could disable all but one LED anyways if you really wanted. I'm also considering the value of the digital readout. Nice.
Hey Arro....I got my gauges from www.redlinegaugeworks.com They're located in Santa Clarita, CA Looks to be about an hour north west from Ontario up the 210.....might be worth the drive to take a look.
I already ordered VDO 30-0-25psi TURBO and VDO EGT. So VDO with its flat, simple black bezels is the look I chose. But I have other cars I may very well consider them for.
Actually.....I was refering to the shift lights you are interested in.
Ahhh hahah oops sorry a bit tired tonight... spent thebetter half of the day and most of tonight under the hood... Took this meter long trak lighting bar with two lights on it, and hung it off the hood loop like a drop light. Could see more than enough. Anyways yeah I might hit them up for one after I mount the VDOs... and after I get this biotch running again ;)
Uhhhhh, My question wasn't answered. What do the numbers represent in the shift light? Are they current RPM, or the shift RPM?
Uhhhhh, My question wasn't answered. What do the numbers represent in the shift light? Are they current RPM, or the shift RPM?According to the site, they are both...you can toggle between where you want the light to come on, and your current rpm...pretty cool if I do say so my self!!
I change my desire from want to REALLY REALLY WANT!!
Yeah like I said these aren't ricey, they'e functional. If you don't like all the LEDs, just cut some pieces of lens material and tack them over the LEDs leaving the digital display exposed.
If you need to use a shift light, remember to set it about 300 rpm under where you want to shift to give yourself enough time to change gears without going over.
They get annoying as all hell on a car that sees serious track time/abuse.
Nothing like super bright LEDs going off in your face while you drive.
