Not sure what to call it, the little red indicator that shows if you are in Park Neutral Gear etc.......
It is completely stuck as far to the left as it can get, never has moved since I bought it. Kind of annoying.
Is it a big job to fix, something an amateur could fix? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks guys,
Rob

For my car, (1970 B body) the gear indicator pointer is held onto the part of the column that rotates with the gear selection by 1 phillips head screw. However, to access the screw the lower trim piece needs to be removed, which is held on my 6 or 7 phillips head screws. Yours may be similar, but if the pointer wasn't screwed on, it would likely have fallen out. ----interesting.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Timbuk..... the tape seems to be doing the trick, and no cut up fingers!
