Default Sequential shift light?

Anyone running a sequential shift light? If so, which one and how do you like it.
Thanks in advance.

got it from LGM and it works great! It is a very nice and you soon become unaware you are using it. Worth every penny.

I have the LG light also. It works great and really adds to your information/data input while your driving on the track. I have it directly on top of my dash so that it is in my vision and it really helps to get the most out of the car.
I do not have any pictures.

Only gages I look at are oil temp and pressuer. SHifting is done by the sound of the engine

I have a regular shift light and find that very handy at the track.

I just started looking at sequential shift lights and think that would give even more information then what the single light gives.

Not sequential, but I set my shift light 200 rpm under the fuel cutoff.
I find I'm usually starting to shift just when the light comes on.

I have a G Tec R and it has a sequental light that is really handy. Im looking to mount one permanent though. Ill have to call LG.

I do bump the rev limit now and then. If i was to do it by the sound of the motor i would do it all the time. The sequental lets me know as i enter the shift zone, and if i want to shift early i shift when light one comes on.
