***** man, you have massive *****.
looks good though. if I had a set half as big as yours Id look into changing the gauge colors.

kinda risky, but it works...open up the entire gauge/pod find trace on board lead to OEM shiftlight, tap/solder wire to 2 external bright LED. drill 2 holes on the aluminum plate, mount LEDs and reassemble.

Awesome! The factory shift light is worthless.
