i actually planned to do this aaages ago, and never got round to it.

it would make more sense to put the LED on the rev counter though

So the LED will burn whenever you hit the right revs, right? It seems like a nice idea. Will that be an easy job?

There is a grey mk2 at Franken scrapyard. Is this the car you also got the taillights from?

yes. drill a hole for an led, pop it in, and hook the wires up to the stubs on the back of the dash
