Shift **** Question
Found this yesterday in a 1982 Firebird at my local salvage yard.I was wondering if anyone can tell me what years these ***** were used.Also is this what they refer to as a knight rider shift ****?

I thought that was the knight rider ****.It was still on the shift lever but the button was missing.I searched the car but couldnt find it anywhere.So i just removed the ****.It still has the metal tangs intact

I'm pretty sure these were '82 only. 83 got the "T-Handle" shifter. I think Grand Prix's and Grand Am's of the same year got them also....I know they got the PMD seats.

Also another 1 year only item is the heater controls. The graphics for the fan speed are different in '82 than '83-'84.
