You can hook up everything to your cluster wires.

Shift light wire ---> Cluster harness wire

1. Green wire ---> Blue wire (tachometer signal)
2. Red wire ---> Black/Yellow wire (12v)
3. Black wire ---> Ground to dash bolt

The Pro Lite Shift light is i believe the one with the pills. So the 1, 2, 3 that Blue said is correct. Then you just need whatever pills you would like to use.

Also make sure its set to 4 cylinder

i belive you need a pill box which you hook up to the tack wire then you put the desired rpm pill in then hook th elight to the switch (2 wires one ground and one positive) you cant just hook up the like there has to be an rpm activated switch.

Those dont use Pills. These use pills. And thats what i thought you were using.



The ones you have are more of a warning light. We used one for an oil pressure light but was to small and upped it to a bigger one. But you need to run a sender to it. What some people do is (if you have crome/hondata) it has an shift light built in that comes on by the check engine light. You could tap your white wire to the CEL and the black to the ground. Then you change your shift light inside crome. You bought the wrong type of thing if you wanted to change it on the fly.

Edit: if you really want to still use it then you might want to pick up one of these: http://www.streetperformance.c....html

Hook it to your CEL, whenever that comes on youll know. Or the seatbelt light to annoy you until you put it on. Ebrake, etc. If you have a D series VTEC engine then hook it up to your VTEC wire, the light will come on everytime you hit VTEC
