Need a small hollow cylinder material I can shape that won't move?

okay, with the wot box on my car, you can integrate a shift light, but not a big one.

using a 9 pin comport you can take the end of the #6 and #2 pin and wire them to an led and set the time.

kenny helped me get it all together and mounting it in a little hole we drilled on the top half of the steering column. shined in my face perfect, it has to be pointed at you or it's not really bright enough.

problem is if the wheel turns at all, it blocks it, and with steering down the track thats going to happen.

so, i need to get some kind of a flexible but not too flexible material that I can run the wire through so i can take it out of the top of the column and point it where i want, but won't move when launching or driving.

any ideas?

Copper or aluminum tubing should work.

You could even put it in a carboard tube or something similar if you just cover it in heat Shrink tubing. You could even improvise a a small bracket to the tube and hold that in place with heat shrink. Then it's easier to move around till you find the sweet spot.

I recently mounted my tach on a suction cup bracket (like a GPS) so at the track I can put it in the top center of my dash and point it at me. I can't see my stock tach well enough while driving (especially staging). During the week I unplug it and keep it in a case.
