    The thought had crossed my mind! But I was worried it would be a little too literal. Even though I’m going for aircraft style, I’m trying to keep it believable that it could it could be seen in a race car (not a theme car). Even the Jegs pistol grip shifter felt like a stretch.

    It’s still tempting though.... I might have to get one for my daily driver FJ.

    I like it. What’s the red button on your stick shift? Line lock, nitrous, sidewinder?

    I wish it was something cool, but it’s currently connected to the T56 reverse lockout solenoid. I will tell everyone it’s for the passenger eject seat.

    Thanks! It's hard to spot in the picture, but I also used one of these NVU units for the indicator lights as well: http://newvintageusallc.mybigcommerc...r-icons-horiz/

    I thought it was a nice stealthy, and compact way to get all of the lights in the panel.
