Helps when you want to shift right on 7800rpm

I often think about how pointless our little beep and light are simply because we have to run with windows down at the auto-x, music up, daytime (light)...this would solve all of those issues. Link to part?

I'm thinking of getting a helmet-mounted one similar to this that motorcyclists use. When I AutoX or RallyX, I'm never looking at my dash, or even straight ahead. Having something always in my line of sight would be nice.

I had one of these installed on my Elise. Installation is easy enough... just pickup off a spark plug wire.

what harness or wire powers the little red dash light and beep is a fun question.

I wish those indents on the tach were actual LED lights. They line up perfectly for each 1k RPM.
