Title: Shifter indicator/pointer/needle
Post by: Limey57 on 2014-11-24 08:00
And something else I can't find......  Is the (auto) gear shift indicator needle avaialble anywhere?  I've searched and can't find anyone who lists it, I guess it just clamps onto the shifter rod?  I've got everything else, including the P, R, N, D, L surround, glass etc but I can't find the needle anywhere.

I may have one. I will check when I get out to my garage on Wednesday. I have a few old steering columns and think I remember seeing one.

Thank-you.  I hope it's warmer in your garage than mine at the minute!

I hate to rub it in, but it was 82 at my garage today. San Diego weather is so hard to live with. Out of all the columns I have I did find one (1) pointer. It is yours, just pay shipping cost. Message me directly with your address and I will get a shipping cost. It is very small so I am sure it can't be too much. By the way it is held on by a small phillips head screw. If you look at your column there should be a very small hole in your shifter shaft on the passenger side of the shaft. This one will need to be cleaned up and repainted.
