    I'm going to mount it right in front of the steering wheel. It's not huge and not noticeable.

    that's definitely not for me. Way to big and showy. I'll stick with the razo, it's about the size of a wallet

    I usually go by sound too, but with a helmet on it is kind of hard to hear the car as well as you can with out. I think that a shift light would be nice however, i think that it would be a lot nicer if you were to include a swtich to turn it off for most street driving, or to set it so high that your chances of hitting on the street are severely limited IMHO

    Why is that thing so huge?

    I was hoping to get one that I could hide behind/inside a vent.

    both of them are kind of huge. . . you could always get an rpm activated switch and have that turn an led on. . .

    How/where?? That sounds like what I'm looking for.

    msd makes one, 59 bucks at summit racing i am not exactly sure how you would hook it up though, but i am pretty sure that it would work.

    it looks like vdo makes one that has a knob to adjust the rev at which the switch is triggered which would be better then the module that msd uses. . . .try racer parts wholesale for that one.

    I wonder if that VDO switch can be used with a regular bulb. That way maybe you can custom imbed a small bulb into the dash somewhere and have it be discreet.

    I would imagine that it could be used with any 12v accessory.
