Ersans gear indicator.

A simple "I don't see the point" would be enough. No need to actively insult someone's choice of mods (insult has been removed).

Sometimes I need to see what gear I am in. So I think the mods is necessary before I decide what I am gonna do with it ie. with or without gear indicator before cutting job is done. once cut there's no turning back. although i have a spare i wont do the mods twice, and it is expensive mods. Thats just what I thought.

Well, if you need a gear indication, you can only make up a one-off thing. The shift knob you linked over on nasioc us working by some sensors if i recall correctly, so that it knows in which gear you are. apparently, this can't be used in the speedo (i.e. use the auto shift/gear led's to light up).

So the easy solution will be, to use such shift knob.

Hi Stefan, of course the auto shift led must be light up, I wont using lcd indicator, thats rubbish. I want it to look like stock cluster. I will examine what inside the auto speedo first and and decide what to do next. So far I found out the gear position sensor is not easy to put in vr4 gear shifter. I guess the H pattern in vr4 shifter would not be exactly engage with sensor's magnet without extension bracket. the shifter movement is so close to each gear position. the sensor likely fail to point/mixed up gear 1 and 3 and 5 for shifter forward movement, and gear 2 and 4 and R for backward movement. Well we wouldnt know about it unless we try, would we.
