well i tried today and there is a 3 pin plug on the clocks above the speedo which is for the 2 little shift lights - i dont seem to have the wiring for them. any ideas where these wires would go? would it be from the gearbox?

Well looks like im scrapping this idea as it turns out you need to be running the twin coil setup and the ecu to make the two lights work. Nightmare lol. Took a lot of searching online to find this out and was gutted. Had all the rev guage apart trying to figure out if i can make some sort of switch so it lights the green light at 4500k and the red one at about 5500k but i cant do it so going to leave it for the min. Might try a micro switch but not sure yet. Oh well lol
