B@m Megashifter

[sxc33]

Hello u mob. Been looking around for a while now, but i cant find what i am looking to know.

Questions for ya.

1) With the auto gear shifter in my herd of shit at the moment, it has an illuminated gear indicator both in the dash board and the surround for the gear stick itself. I wanna put a B@M megashifter into it. The shifter in question has an illuminated gear selector much the same as the standard arrangement does.

So how would i go about wiring the aftermarket B@M jobbie so that it still interfaces with the gear indicator lights in the dash board?

I realise that there is no functional reason to do this, i want it purley for wank factor.

2) Whats the best way to make, modify, change the gear surround to fit this shifter in and not have it look like shit. All i have come across thus far are Ratchet shifters that have had the surround cut out. I really dislike this look, however the mega shifter i have has a manual style rubber boot, so the old cut it out formula wont work here.

Cant find any details of people using a mega shifter at all. Surely i am not the only one who is gonna do it?

Any help or suggestions or details that anyone can pass on would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone confirm wether the signal that gets sent to the dash light gear indicator jobby is from the shifter linkage itself, or some sort of relay/switch under the floor pan?

Am i the only one out here that is trying to put one of these shifters into a skyrine?

Surely someone can help me!!!

Hey, i had a B&M Pro Ratchet fitted to my R33.. The lights on the dash are activated by the transmission so they still work once you put in an after market shifter.

And i just cut the stock gear surround to suit the shifter, Cheers
