I set the 1-4 skip shift light to come on and off with hptuners. I set it to come on at 5300 rpms. so i use the dash light as a shift light.

I think you're missing the point - this is yet another opportunity for us to install another redundant, flashy gizmo in our C5's that we can point out and brag to our friends about.

my car was tuned and they set it to come on around 6k but its still not enough for me i dont want to be looking for any thing I'd rather just have the shift light catch my attention and remind me to shift, I've been in close races where I forgot to shift from the excitement lol

now with the shift light even if I forget it reminds me......

5300 kinda low? raptor is set to 6300

That's a custom mount I designed and had machined just for that.
