I've been watching ebay for months now trying to find a new (or in "as new" condition) shift plate for my 91 Formula. The one that came with the car last summer has some cig burns on it, since I've restored everything else inside I'd like to fix this too.

Anyone have a line on a 5 speed shift plate with the provisions for the power mirrors and power windows? I have the switches (though spares might be nice), but it has to have the cutouts for them to work right. I can PayPal or send you a money order if you have or know of one. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Have a Great Day!!!

A non power plate will work, there are lines on the bottom that tell you where to cut. Just get a rotory cutting tool and cut the holes for the switches, its not to hard, just go slow where you don't melt the plastic. You could also consider sanding the plate and using some plastic polish and make it just shiny instead of the squares on it.

GM has discontinued the manual plate so finding a new one might be hard.

You can check with thirdgen resource or hawks up top they should have a used one.

 

THANKS!!! I think I'll look into doing that. I didn't realize Converting a non-power to power shift plate would be that easy. Appreciate the input!

Again, THANKS!!!
