4th season shifter
Posted: Sun Jul 19, 2009 11:32 pm
Hi I'm new to the board. And noticed a thread asking about the 4th season shifter that was used on the mockup. I wanted to post an answer there but the thread was locked so I wanted to post it here. Just not sure if im in the right area or not.
Anyways, in my replica I'm building I was actually able to duplicate this. I have a 2009 F-150 I drive daily and it's gearshift does exactly what KITT did, except it has a small orange indicator next to each letter that follows the floor shifter as I shift. I got the parts for the floor shifter from the local dealer which uses basic leds as it shifts. they are not orange, just placed behind orange panels on the shifter. So I modified it to work in my T/As lower console and it worked great.
Only problem is I have a 4speed trans and a 3 speed shift plate, so my drive is overdrive and I have no clue where 1 is at lol.
