Check engine light wiring

OK, here is a dumb question. :hide

Where is the check engine light in the dash on a 70 Mustang and what color wires go to it?

I need to tie in the engine computer to the check engine light and I am not sure where to do it.

Thanks
 
There is no "check engine light" in a 1970. For 1971-73, the oil pressure light was used when the car was first turned on, but that is still not a "check engine light".
 
I didn't think there was one, but the directions for the rjm efi wiring harness had 2 wires for it and says to just hook them up to the check engine light.

Any suggestions for a check engine light for an efi swap?

For my check engine light, I used a volt yellow led. The positive lead is hooked to 12 v when the key is on and the ground is from the computer. I've got a panel for all my added lights: e-brake, the line lock, fuel pump, electric fan, and of course my shift light. Here's where I installed mine:
