Finally! A useful 944 accessory
I found this searching ebay for 944. Looks like it could be original equipment.

Now if I could just find something that would turn my headlights on when it gets dark, it's so hard to tell when that happens.
Sorry, I'm in a hotel room...bored...

Hey, atleast the seller claims no horsepower increase!
Why you would need a shiftlight when you have an automatic is beyond me. Perhaps one needs to know when to put overdrive on.

i thought 85.1 and before 944's had shift lights. was it up and down or just an up light that lit up at certain rpm?
i remember that in my '84.
and in a carrera i drove once, about the same year, too.

Juan, i tihnk most manual 944's have the shift light, its however more of a 'shift here to save gas' light like Ryan said. However i find if sometimes if i shift where it says to ill end up lugging the engine . Youll often here me saying...
"Shift now? are you freaken crazy?"

that was usually my response. when i was driving the car back home after i bought it i thought "did something go wrong? oh wait, the up arrow must mean 'GO FASTER!!!"
