Re: repair gear indicator?
Do you have the piece? Hot glue it or find similar plastic and glue it on and file it. I would say go to a wrecker but your location...Nevermind.

I dont have the piece, it came like this. I wanted to use a bolt and drill a hole through the metal of the dash...but there is a solid piece af steel behind it for the steering wheel. Hopefully somebody has some ideas for me...I'd really like the restore this, without completely replacing the dash behind it.

Re: repair gear indicator?
i was thinking if you could get a screw through from the back
nut it as soon as it comes through for not moving leave a 1/2 inch or less sticking out some how smooth off the threads,or a little sheath over them(pop rivit head?) except for the last bit to put two more nuts locking them....
