Hi. From memory look for a pink/blue wire either on the back of the cluster or going to the diagnostic plug in the fuse box. Cheers MD

Sounds right to me. But why do you need a shift light in an auto?

Stick it in D and just nail it at heathcote....
From a few people that I've spoken to, they seem to run better numbers not manually shifting it...!!

Shift lights are very handy , on quick cars . At 14 seconds , you will be able to look at every guage and the tacho and speedo and change spot on everytime . Its not like your running ridiculously fast like 10's or something .
No offence intended . Just trying to put it out there , that even guys running 8's and 9's and stuff , still have to look at all the guages to make sure everything is correct
