My 90 also has (had) the shift light. Cruising in 5th @ 50 mph the darn light would come on. Releasing & applying throttle would turn it off for awhile. When the cluster was out the shift light bulbs & change oil light bulb were removed. Seems to me that those light features were designed for idiots not drivers.

I have been fooling around trying to see if my '91 launches better in D or OD. left the car in D and the shift light came on. Never in OD though.
I had my car for a month before I noticed the hatch switches in the doors by the latch. That is so handy!

Took mine out years ago & while trying to remember exactly where it is located so you would know where to look I found it in the 90 owners manual. Page 64.

Not to diss anyone, but doesn't anyone read the owners manual anymore? All of these hidden features (like arm rest storage and how the parking brake works) are fully documented there. Back in my day (I know, ancient history) when you got a car you read that thing cover to cover.

I did look up the door panel storage comparment in the owners manual and there is only one picture and a sentence under that it was easy to miss because I did, I read the page before and thought I read that page because of the security shade.
