Default Shift light for a 5 cyl?

Due to the small Momo steering wheel on the Coupe, I can't see the top half of the tach, and there's no way to spin it in the housing like older cars due to the circuit board. I'm wondering if there is a way to adapt a shift light like the rice boyz use to compensate for this. They are only advertised as available for 4-6-8 cylinders. How are they triggered?
No, I'm not putting in one of those monster things either. Give me some credit!

The 4Ks and 5Ks are 5cyls that came with shift lights. It's a small yellow 'up' arrow in the middle of the inst cluster. Audi parts, Audi look. You could try adapting that to a CGT.
