Your gonna need a L.E.D light from radioshack with 2 wires coming out the back(one for + the other for -) Ground the - wire to any metal on the chassis and run the + to the VTEC solenoid wire itself(i believe it's green/white). Now when you hit VTEC, the light will light up. You actually have to drive the car to engage VTEC so you just can sit in the driveway and rev it to whenever your VTEC kicks in...you have to be moving.

Connect the (+) wire to the VTEC solenoid wire(green/white)..(under the hood by the distributor) and the (-) to any metal on the chassis. You can put the light anywhere you want on the dash....you just have to cut or drill a small hole and run it through from the back or you could even put it in the guage cluster itself. I hope this helped this time.

ok.....Just run the wires through the firewall and once they are through there then you can maybe pop something out on the dash and drill a hole in it and then pop it back in and run the light through the back. It's seriously not hard at all man. If it's too complicated for you then i would suggest not doing it.

I have seen those things on ebay before. They come with everything you need including installation instructions (or so they say).
