Wait to start - Remote led

I have a 02 F450 that I recently purchased. I have to move my head around to see the wait to start indicator. Cotton picking steering wheel blocks it most of the time. I want to add a remote led to my A pillar cluster. Any ideas on how to tie it in?

negative to ground, positive to glow plug side of the glow plug relay.
i drilled a 1/4 inch hole and glued the led in the hole
just be warned, the glow plugs will be powered up to two minutes.
the light in the dash is an idiot light, and will come on whether the glow plugs get powered or not.
