Default Vtec Indicator Light

Is this worth doing?

if you got nothing else to do, it's a fun little project..won't be hard at all. it takes more time deciding on where to mount the LED. :thumbup:

where did u run the wire to? did you run it directly into the engine bay and tap it onto the solinoid wire, or did u tape it into the wire on the ECU? what volt of led did u use?

i tapped it from the ECU and ran it under the dash to the gauge cluster, i used a LED with a resistor that was already soldered on to it (came from the cig lighter light thingy with the bendable neck) but i think its a 5 volt LED but you can use any LED with the right resistor as long as you know how many volts the LED needs.

I dunno if you wanna know if your vtec is workin its something useful, other than that I say its just another light in the dash. And I'm to the point to cut the wire saying "Seatbelt is Undone"
