Ok, what is a vtec indicator?

Ans: It is a wiring link to your vtec sensor, so once your engine engage vtec, the LED bulb will light up. This LED bulb will be place inside your spedometer claster with a word VTEC on a black background, thus when VTEC is engauge, it will light up showing the word VTEC.
Its somelike like your handbrake light which will light up in the background and will remain black when VTEC is not engauge.

Well, its serve no purporse, however it does provide some eye candy at yr spedo claster letting you know that your vtec is being engauge. :lol: :lol:

Cheers.

Now, any bro have the address for the shop?

yes, that's the place if they still do this service.

dunno how much they charge now... just pay la...


one point to note - it is NOT RECOMMENDED to put red indicator or Amber or yellow colours. Your instrument panel warnings lights are all red or yellow/amber...


so the vtec on indicator should either be blue, green, or white. recommend blue for least irritating effect when driving especially for long distance - the light will be ON almost all the time.
