I had the tack up on the dash with the shift light up there right in the dead center facing right at me when I drag raced it often and I didn't have a dash pad there. Now I'm just kind of tucking things down as I got it more set up for the street. It still has the shift light on the left side but it seems LOL I never pay attention to that damn thing anyways lol it would go off and I'd be like forget that...
