My cavalier has a shift light even, for fuel economy, but it still does its job when im on the phone and forget about 5th gear.
Headers would also definately do the trick. They also add a bit of vibration at higher rpm that would be noticable. ARH works on mine.
I almost never use 5th. I usually go from 4th to 6th. Many times, I love the acceleration (exileration), I am at freeway speed in 3rd and just skip 4th and 5th.
