Ok, im looking to buy and install a shiftlight and would like to know a few thing. First, I would like to know what you think about it. Then, is it hard to install ? A few pic of what it look like would be nice.

Oh... I have a DX 1990....

well, it all depends on the shiftlight..
Do you have a swap in your DX, or still OG motor..?

A shiftlight requires something to activate it. Some have this mechanism built-in to it, others dont.
Is it hard to install? Yes and no.. Yes, depending on where you mount it. No, depending on where you mount it. Wiring is easy, though.. ground, 12V switched, tachwire, and that's about it.
I honestly know of noone with a shiftlight in their Honda, 'cept for an occasional ricer or two, or the avid (serious) racer.. It's more of a Ricer thing in a daily driver, but it's all about what you want. ;)

Still OG motor, but looking to change it. (Pumping oil like crazy)
And I know it does ''Wannabe Riiiacer'', but I already have the civic that smoke the more in town, and the one that make more noise. So a little less or a little more.

not really sure what all that meant ;)
but what shiftlight are you looking to get?
There are many to choose from.

Still looking...
That just an idea that came in my mind, nothing done or bought yet.
