DIY Oil pressure light

Since the AE86 does not have an oilpreassure light as standard.
i have made an how-to – as to how you easily make on fit your car.

When driving – it’s way easier to focus your attention on a RED bright light – than on an guage way down in the clusters.

So here’s how its done.
1: purchase a suitable red 12V light (or other colour you prefer)
