I have no idea? Has someone done that already? The purpose of this is DIY, though. That and it could potentially do much more than just shift lights if you wanted it to. There are pros and cons to everything.Question: Why can't we just buy the GT350 part and retrofit it into the GT?
I know. I was thinking that, maybe, the GT350 would not be plug-and-play, but only because the code wouldn't work. The dashboard slot is essentially the same, however, across all 'stangs.I have no idea? Has someone done that already? The purpose of this is DIY, though.

Oh, gotcha there. Interesting idea. Will have to do some research on that part.I know. I was thinking that, maybe, the GT350 would not be plug-and-play, but only because the code wouldn't work. The dashboard slot is essentially the same, however, across all 'stangs.
So, instead of having to print a durable plastic part, we could recycle the OEM led strip (which would fit perfectly) and just handle the software side.
I emailed levittown asking whether the GT350 part is available for purchase. I couldn't find the part on the website though. Will update once they reply.Oh, gotcha there. Interesting idea. Will have to do some research on that part.
It would be cool to see if this can be used as a HUD for your speed as well as shift lights.Finally got around to messing around with this. Used an Arduino Pro Mini (5v) and a Freematics OBD2 UART adapter. I used a small OLED display for testing. Tested engine RPM and speed and worked great. Should be really easy to hook up an RGB LED strip and control it based on RPM. Stay tuned
Should be pretty easy. Dealing with roof work on my house or i'd have something more done by now. :headbonk:It would be cool to see if this can be used as a HUD for your speed as well as shift lights.
Priorities, priorties...so you may get a flooded basement, mouldy dry-wall, thousands of dollars of repairs and a divorce... But you'll be the single guy who has a flooded cellar, toxic walls and no money that developed a cost-effective HUD system for the masses. That makes a difference. Think about it! We all have to make sacrifices for greatness!Should be pretty easy. Dealing with roof work on my house or i'd have something more done by now. :headbonk:
Lol. I don't think it's anything too special. Pretty much basic Arduino stuff and the Neopixel libraries make it ultra easy to control the LED strips. I'm sure it's been done already, but the process of doing it yourself is the fun part. I ordered a rotary encoder so I can make the shift point an adjustable setting that can be saved to EEPROM. :cheers:Priorities, priorties...so you may get a flooded basement, mouldy dry-wall, thousands of dollars of repairs and a divorce...

Not base models.google a gt350 shift light, this is the shift light on the gt350 all mustangs even my automatic have the tach gauge flash red at the red line
