DIY shift light project

[SaleenGT2001]

is there any place i can get an rpm activated switch that will work on my 01 gt? i was gonna try making my own LED shift light. if i can get a cheap rpm activated switch i think i just might be able to rig it up. and yes i have too much free time on my hands.

well it looks like a lot of people are interested. someone has to know how to trigger from the rpm's

Why not just buy one of these? Raptor Shift Lights

I'd have to concur why not jsut buy a raptor? By the time you buy the actvation switch and other bs then add your time in I can't se it be a cost savings. Well unless you build it while getting paid

DIYers do it for the enjoyment of accomplishing something, not necessarily to save $. Anyway, here are some RPM activated switches:

That what you are looking for?

I was just making sure that they knew of the options out there. I have noticed Raptor Performance is probably the only shift light manufacturer that costs under $100 and doesn't need a RPM switch or anything. I'm interested in the DIY because I would like to have a small bulb visible instead of soemthing like the Raptor or AutoMeter.
