Simply put a small piece of electrical tape over it.

What is your problem with the light? Corvettes have had a console shift area light since the C4's. It's not intrusive and lets you see the shifter area without it glaring into your eyes or mess with your night vision.

So I turn it off.
My Valentine has a remote unit so lights don't show. Why antagonize cops.

Hmmm, sounds to me like you are the old grumpy one if that light is bothering you so much.

I guess mine is really bright.. then again.. with 20/10 eyesight in each eye I tend to see things very well. Thus, with all black interior, Limo tint all the way around, and all the panel lights off.. that little yellow light sure looks BRIGHT in the dark!!!

I like the light.. Its a nice touch and it does not distract...
It also helps me read the shifter so I know what gear its in... Hahaha only kidding... Been doing the manual thing for 37 years now.... Holy sh*t I'm gettin old..
