Glow Plug Indicator

Glow Plug Indicator
I'm doing a OM617 swap in to a Jeep YJ. I'm looking for some type of lamp or led for a glow plug indicator for the dash. I'm looking for something with somewhat of a stock look and not just a yellow light or led. Has anyone come across anything ? I might just use a Carlings Switch with the glow plug icon on it and just wire the glow plug relay to light the switch and basically just have a dead switch but it will match with the Carling Switches I already have and light up.

Thanks FTE, thats the route I'd like to go. I am using the stock glow plug relay. I was thinking of using one of the unused lights in the cluster indicators. Where did you get the icon from ? I don't know if Jeep made Wranglers for export with the diesels. I know they made Cherokees with 2.1 Turbo Diesels, and they were only for export. The indicator lights on the export models were all international symbols, and had a glow plug light. The panel can easily be taken off the cluster and mounted on a US cluster. I'm researching to see if the Wranglers had a simluar set up and I could just change the lens cover for the lights. Its pretty easy. If its not too much trouble could you post or send me a pic of it ?
Thanks.
