led shift light

want to add a nice led shift light into the dash

my ecu has an output for it, i like the look of the ones that you get on new bikes with afew led's in

had a quick look on ebay but that seems a minefield if you out led bulb into it!

any ideas on where to source one?

I use the Ecliptec shift-i

https://ecliptech.com.au/

It's very good but not cheap, around £100

I can check when I get home. But you've got 12v and 2 negative switches. So the Ecu grounds one wire (green light), then the second wire(red light)

As Ben says, my ECU only has one shift-light output so I have connected both the negative wires together. This lights the green and red LEDS together.
