Default 700r4 shift indicator lens

I am fixing to install a 700r4 trans in my 1980 corvette. Does anyone know where to find a shift indicator lens for the console. They make them for many cars but having a lot of trouble finding one for my 1980 c3. Any help would be appreciated. Also wondering what problems anyone who has done this conversion has run into. Thanks

Thank you very much. Are the kit, cable, and switch all totally necessary, or vey helpful? Can you do it with just the kit? Not sure exactly what I will run into.

I have both the conversion and the full blown kit to include the shifter assembly for my 82. It's a great and kit and it is the best kit bar none for the 82 which does not have a 1st gear hold out like other 700r4s for later models. The full kit allows for that and the new cable is a good upgrade. It is nice to be able to hold out 1st gear to whatever I want in manually. Give them a call. GL
