Default Transmission Gear Indicator Problem

Top view of gear indicator



Bottom view of gear indicator


Does anyone know how this automatic transmission indicator attaches? I cannot find any tabs or screws on the plastic console to attach this piece. It was like this when I bought the Corvette and makes it hard to see what gear one is engaged in because it is sunken.

Do I need to buy a new console piece where the automatic transmission indicator plate attaches?

Thank you in advance.

You're missing the little orange indicator slide

Two screws and one light bulb/socket. You are probably missing the push nuts that go on the console. If you replace the console you have re-use the old nuts.

You can also get them from Corvette Central.
