I have it and it is awesome!!!

It looks factory (providing you have black interior), and lets you adjust within hundred rpm increments.

See one of my previous posts with pics (you'll have to do a search).

I believe if you post this on LS1Tech.com you will find a huge number Harlan Shiftlight loyalists. ;)
FWIW- I received my shiftlight about three weeks after order placement.
Can't beat the price. :thumbs: :cheers:

I just bought a raptor and it looks sweet. I was also considering the harlan but decided to spend alittle more for what seemed a better shift light. I haven't installed it yet so can't tell you how it actually works :D

I have a Harlan and it works great. Be aware though. He took my PayPal money, never answered my repeated e-mails and never sent my shift light..............until............at one month since I ordered it, I contacted Paypal, they froze his account and I had my shift Light two days later by overnight shipping. :smash: :smash: :smash: :cheers:

I thought I wrote racer44's post because this is exactly what happened to me.The reason I started the thread was I did not want to go through the effort to install the Harlan shift lite and find out it worked like His customer service.

I got good service from Harlan. My light was shipped promptly. I like the slim look of the raptor though.

Let me put it this way. From personal experience and from reading posts on the forums, Harlan's customer service is seriously lacking. He does it in his spare time so it isn't a high priority. my too sense. :)
