You can buy a shift light on eBay for about $15 shipped. Basically follow what the mightycarmods guys did except instead of the bulb, put a red LED Strip inplace of the bulb and curve it to the outside edge of the Tacho, then put some Aluminum tape on cardboard or paper to separate it from the Speedo unless you're okay with the bleeding light. Without the LED strip, the light is pretty dim and you can barely see it during the day. Total cost should be about $25 if you can get the LED strip light in red off of amazon or eBay which is around $10 for 5 meters which is more than enough. If you want to get RGB led strips you can also do the color changing backlight and then use an extra few inches and just set it up so it only lights up red. Theres usually 4 wires, some have 3 positives and a common ground, some have 1 positive and 3 grounds. Not hard to figure out which you have
