Can anyone suggest a stand alone (no tach) shift light that works well with our cars?

TIA

You need to be more specific to what kind of shift light you are looking for.
Is it for best performance , economy or just not to hit the rev limiter or red line?

I have my window switch shut off my nitrous at 7200 rpm. I would like a shift light to alert me when I hit 7000 or so. Thanks.

Scott, look at these new products from NX. Pretty cool (IMO over priced, but neat)

These have multiple lights that will tell you your rpm in multiple positions.
I'm curious, what did you do to make 7200 rpm safe?

Thanks for the suggestions. Note sure what you meant by safe.

There is plenty of time between the 7200 (N20 cutoff controlled by MSD window switch) and the 8100 max.
