Raptor shift light installed onto the small polymer piece in the analog cluster. This pies pops out with no tools and the Raptor unit fits there perfectly. Wiring easily ran on top of column. Grab a negative wire from any of the ignition coils and you are biz. FYI, specifically on gen2 the purple wire on all coils is a constant hot. The trigger is the negative and will vary in color from cylinder to cylinder. The Raptor has a grounded output the hits when the light comes on. I use this output to activate the air shift solenoid in the trunk. Whipped up a small bracket with a micro switch to break the signal wire to the air shifter once trans is in high gear.

Hey alright and thank you! Tons of great info on this forum with all the builds and tech threads. Hopefully there are some bits of info in this thread, someone can apply to their build. Just as I've applied info from here to my build.
