I need the shifter insert for the center console for the 2-speed Super Turbine 300 transmission. The one currently in the car is for a 3-speed TH-400 (P-R-N-D-L2-L1). Any leads would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Ken

There is a guy on V8Buick that was selling them.  Next time I'm over there I'll try to find it.  Or, take a look at the Parts for Sale section, you should be able to find it there.

EDIT: Send a PM to Buickman1967 over on the V8Buick forum.  He is selling them, he's selling the lens and the black slider.

You're welcome. If you end up buying one, post how they are over here, I'm considering buying one for my car.

I have one in very good condition. I'd be happy to trade it even for your P-R-N-D-2-1 PRNDL in your car.

Keith,
The lens arrived this week and I just installed it. It works well! The original lens is beveled around the top face to fit flush within the chrome holder but the replacement is not beveled. It makes it a tight fit getting everything back together, but it works fine and looks great. It illuminates perfectly as well. If you need it, it's a good product!

Jerry,
Would be happy to trade! The one from my car is in pretty good shape. Let's do this: Send me a private message with your address and I'll send it to you. If you like it, send me yours in return. If you don't like it send it back to me! Hope that works!

I'm glad this worked out for you.  I've decided to leave mine along for now, mine has a bit of yellowing around the corners, but is still completely functional.  Kind of matches the rest of the car, and come to think of it, the owner as well.  We're both right around 50 years old, after all (me a couple more than the car!!).
