GTO Shift Light

Anyone know where I can get in contact with someone that "activates" the stock shift light? Preferably in FL.(will travel). I'm not to pleased with the idea of sending off my whole dash practically in the mail...my personal run in's with FED EX/UPS at work terminated that idea. Any help would be appreciated.

I know what you mean. But I bit the bullet this week and sent it to Chris at White Auto Media. He called me Tues PM and told me the programming was done. It is shipping back to me via 2-day air so I should have it back today or tomorrow at the latest.

check through some of the other forums...this has been talked about alot. i think if you can get enough people that will agree to do it he will actually come to you. im not sure what the deal with that is though(like price, # of people, etc.) but it's on here somewhere.

I got mine back today and installed it. Maybe 5 minutes to remove, 3 minutes to install- its absolutely no sweat at all. Look at the instructions on the White Automotive site.

I took the car for a spin to check it out. Seeing the light is not an issue, it is very bright at least at night. But catching the 1-2 shift on the light is going to be tough. It was about 50 deg outside and the car was ripping through 1st mighty fast. Even though the shift light is supposed to be set at 6200 RPM I still tended to bump the limiter. But I bet a lot of non-GTO owners wished they had that problem!

Do like some of the guy here in east texas. get up a meet with a bunch local Goat owners and talk to Chris and see if you can get him to fly down there to you guys and have him do a bunch of cars in one sitting. set up a date then have a big meet.
