Re-Purposing Aftermarket Dash LED's?

So the previous owner had a K40 installed back in the late 80's or so. Front and rear sensors, etc... I'm sure it was expensive back in the day but it's a heap of crap now. Same goes for all the stereo equipment and wires we're tearing out. Nice stuff way back when. Garbage now. I had a vintage soundstream amp under the passenger seat and a sony equalizer in the glove box lol.

Anyway, I didn't notice when I bought the car, but I have 4 little LED's in the dash that were associated with the K40. One for front alerts, one for rear alerts, one for highway/city indication, and one for power maybe? Can't remember.

We just did the retro air kit in the car and I bought the Griffith's AC status LED indicator kit so that's one.

Any ideas for the other 3? Might as well have them do something useful since if I remove them I'll be left with holes.

Thoughts?

1. Oil Press Low Back up
2. Electric Fan on indicator
3. Just print a small tag that says "Ejector Seat Armed" under it and wire it to a switch.

I like the low oil pressure backup. You think they can be wired together?

What about a shift light? Any idea how I would go about doing that?
