Where to mount a shift light?
If you have an aftermarket shift light, where did you mount it? I have the MSD 89631. It's one piece, so that's all I have to mount, but it's tight. I tried to put the mount behind the gauges so the light would be between the gauges and the windshield, but there isn't enough room. Post pics if you can. Thanks.

I had the Dyna and mounted it off of the top right windscreen bolt and it worked pretty well there. Over the winter I switched over to the Raptor which is similar to what you have. I velcroed it to the windsreen, I am not sure how well it will work but I figured I would give it a try. I ran about a 6 inch strip on the underside at the top so it would give me adjustability and then put the other side of the velcro on the mount for the light.

I bolted mine to the back of the guages, using the top center bolt for guage housing, but I am running puig dbl bbl.
Wouldn't be able to do it with stock screen.
I can't post pics from work computer

that's exactly what I tried, there just wasn't enough space with stock windshield. I'm thinking about putting some washers behind the cluster on that same bolt to angle it down a little, which would give me a little more space. I want the shift light to be in the center.
