No shift light (05) that I'm aware of, but I can tell you the rev limiter is a very effective signal to shift. HPH

yeah the red on the rev limiter blinks 3 times (at least on my 02) before you actually hit the fuel cutoff. I time my shifts so I shift right on the 2nd blink.

Yes thats normal. The red area will blink when your getting real high. I think the ideal way is to do what Wisconsin s2k is describing, the problem is if your timing is not quick then you will hit the rev limiter. If your not a great driver or trying to extract maxium speed, you'd probably be better served to shift before hitting the red blinks.
