Thats awesome... I want to get one... Ive seen em on ebay.... Is that where you got yours?

That's sweet!

I want a giant indicator so other people can see what gear I am in.

They'll be like "holy crap he's in first gear... doin 70mph!!"

lol

What was the cost if you dont mind?

How does that thing detect the gear that you are in?

it listens to the rev of the engine and monitors the position of the throttle...

actually how does it work? can you post pics of when you plug it in?

Very cool, let us know what you think.

Thanks guys,yeah I got this one off ebay and the rep was in my home town so that was a bonus !
It works by measuring the pulse between the speedo and the tach,and yes I will be posting pics as soon as I get the chance to install it,hopefully this weekend but dont like my chances.
It cost $130,more than I wanted to pay...........but stuff it .......I just want one
