Posts: 5 777Apologies for the thread hijack but am going ahead with a custom Build Ninja 3D part to mount the shift lights as we have instead of having to make up a custom plate. I just went to UPI and picked up a regular 4 speed auto plate, so have measured it up. Just finished modelling the prototype and printing the first off now

Posts: 322Hahhaha mint!!! Yea how did you fit with those style lights as couldnt use them as they were hitting the metal plate on B&M SHIFTER think maybe your shifter mounted lower than my one.
Hence i used leds, went on a cruze with mates today, people were pretty impressed with this style install. The lights at night dont really even bleed into the other shift positions.

Posts: 5 777Thanks for the tip, will have to check that when the prototype is done. I did notice on mine I shifted them across to the right a little as I had made up a whole new plate decal as its two speed. But I am trying to make this line up with the factory positions like you did. Do you have a link or something to the led’s you used? I thought if it possible I will try and make it suit either depending on preference. You did a really nice job, not surprised people are impressed. Its the little things like this that make a lot of difference imo.

Posts: 5 777Now you just need the under radio 3 gauge cluster and trip computer replacement one like mine to finish it off

Posts: 535I’m planning to go manual in my Senator but never really had a real high stalled auto, with a shifter setup like this I may just have to go the stalled auto route before the T56 goes in one day……

Posts: 535I drive Auto’s like a manual anyway, it’s just bloody terrible with the factory shifter and something you fuck it up royally. With something like this you can slap it up/down a gear without worry
November 21, 2016 at 12:10 pm #20668Looks good mate, Gary could you do one for a 3 speed?! id buy one for sure!

Absolutely, I just started a separate thread in the 3D section we just created. You mind posting in there, I have a couple of questions to ask you about what you want?
