FD Shift Buzzer: Where is it?
Had Geoff (@zensation) fix up my cluster and found a pleasant surprise, in addition to my odo, tach and speedo coming back, I also noticed that there's a shift buzzer.
It's a cool feature so I was wondering if anyone knew where exactly it is in the car.
I'd love to put a louder buzzer or somehow wire it up to a light so I can actually hear the thing when I have my windows down on track at HPDE.
There've been a few threads trying to discover where it is, apparently there's a BUZ label on the speedo circuit board but I have not found any small modules or things that look like a buzzer in the gauge cluster.

It's actually NOT in the cluster, it was on FC's.
It uses the buzzer that's in CPU#2. One time I half *** looked at replacing it with a louder buzzer but I think the one in there uses a weird voltage or something.
I'm not sure what the BUZ screw does, it could be the output to tell the CPU to buzz at redline.
BTW, the same buzzer does the low coolant/low oil sound.
