I am looking to purchase a gauge cluster in hopes to do some sort of gear notifier right above the odometer. Its pretty self explanatory. A light behind the gauge would luminate the gear I am in 1-5 and R for my gsr. Is this even a possible venture for a mild DIY'er who knows nothing about electronics?

 

probably not.

MachV used to sell a gear indicator that could work in Evos, but seems its been discontinued:

Might be worth sending them a message asking if they know of any other solutions.

Following are for motorcycles, but might be possible to adapt somehow:

Oh, and be prepared to get raged on for even asking this question...

Thanks guys. This is just one of my many pipe dreams.
