non-tilt indicator problem? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just bought a non tilt auto column for my 72 - it's on the way now but I just found out the indicator was broken so it got tossed.... I was thinking the needle itself but the seller said I "could have a black one and paint it...." I wanted to stay all original blue color - not paint to match. Here's the questions:
How big a deal is it to;
A) replace a broken indicator?
B) replace the indicator plate?
I did search the FAQ and tried searching this forum but found only stuff on tilts and mentions of indicators but no specifics or pics. Any and all info/pics is much appreciated. Thanks.
