Question Shifter top bezel repair/replacement?



As you can see the top bezel is in bad nick, and it seems hard to do a invisible repair of it. I've looked on ebay but no luck so far for a replacement.

Any advice as to how to fix or where to find?

Cheers!

somebody else awhile back had the same type of cracks and broken plastic....what are the dropping on that thing to cause so much damage?!?

Anyway, that is part of the gear shift, the top piece with the P-D markings is not sold separate. Best bet is to find a salvage unit, sorry. Make sure the unit does not have any j-gate bulbs burned out...they're a bugger to replace.

If you've got the parts diagrams and microfiche-scans we have available on the FAQ, you can get your part numbers you're looking for...then start scouring the used parts scene. g'luck!

I just picked one up on ebay, I will probably reinforce it before I put it in.
