Used a Sard PBI and gutted it and did the following to my cluster

Enjoy!

it might be more useful if your shift lamp changes from green to orange to red as your revs rise to indicate then you ought to shift instead of just lighting up at one fixed rpm point.

i like how the lamp was integrated into the stock cluster though, very oem type of setup.... and your exhaust sounds awesome!

thanks for the comment!

actually it changes to red once I hit 7500 rpm the Sard light is programmed to flash green once i hit 4000, flash rapidly as RPMs rise, then turn red on optimum at 7500. Red wasn't seen that much since didn't have enough road to run on but it did flash once on the vid

Don't have orange

ah, makes more sense now. from the vids, all i could see was green from 4000rpm onwards...
