I took my plate apart.
BEen sitting int he sun for quite a while.
Anyway to change that from yellow to white, but still keep WHITE light flowing through? (or will it always be yellow).
Otherwise I can get a used pre-1990 shifter and just yank out its WHITE shifter strip and use it. Assuming they are the same pieces.

I decided to just rip out the yellow piece and put it all back together. I have no red shift indicator anymore, but at least it isnt freaking yellow anymore.
Ill keep looking for a NEW 87-89 plate.

First off was shift pattern, depending on what year and transmission. (Think early thirdgens with no overdrive gear)
Secondly, the slider mechanism was very different on 88+.
Last, the 90-92 had yellow letters.
However, they all will interchange.
