RPM shift light.
#16
I've got one in my car - mounted right between the A-pillar and headliner. I was going to drill a hole in the A-pillar but I've never gotten around to it and it looks fine sandwiched where it is and I can see it with no issues.
Tapping in to wires shouldn't scare anyone - they are just copper! As long as you use a volt meter BEFORE you make any connections and you know how to make a solid connections there is virtually nothing to worry about. The fuel injector signal can be tapped right at the ECU behind the glove box - there is no need to go to the engine bay to install a shift light.

Installation doesn't look too bad for the newer cars.
The VDC switch has a light green wire that connects to the KPtech orange wire (program input)
The VDC switch has a black wire that connects to the KPtech black wire (ground)
The BCM has a white wire at pin 123 that connects to the KPtech yellow wire (switched ignition)
The ECU has a brown wire at pin 85 that connects to the KPtech blue wire (RPM input)
Make sure to use a volt meter to verify ALL wires before making connections!
After the wires are connected, the only thing left to do is mount the 3mm super bright LED. It works best at eye level, but is pretty easy to see in other positions.

I'm not too keen on splicing into the harness. I should have specified that I would use some 3M splices, as I've used those before in car audio with little to no failure. I would imagine that since they wouldn't be moving around much behind the glove box that they'd last (?).
I'm gonna order it soon. Any GB or sales coming up?
Thanks,
San
