Figured I'd show off a picture of my nifty overdrive "engaged" lamp. I'm just using a small blue indicator socket and a bezel salvaged from an early 1800 OD switch. Still need to add some white paint to the lettering to match the existing bezels in the 122. Also I might frost the glass of the indicator to softer it a bit (pretty bright as it is). I plan on putting it in place of the cigarette lighter, which I've never used, so that I don't need to make another hole in the dash.
I'd been hunting for one of these bezels for quite awhile, as I thought this would be a really nice way to add the indicator in a stock-looking fashion. Would anyone else be interested in a solution like this? If there is sufficient interest I could see about generating some copies of this one.
