Smile 1972 Cutlass Hurst Dual Gate Shifter Switches?

Hello-

I am converting a column shift auto tranny to console with the Hurst Dual Gate shifter. Model year of my car is 1972. Is there a switch I need to put on my shifter for reverse and neutral? I know on 1970 models had this, but what did they do for 1972? Also, is there a pointer that is supposed to go under the shift indicator lens on the top plate that moves? Otherwise the light would be shining under the top plate in all gears? Pictures and part numbers would be great if anyone has them. Thanks for the advice in advance!

In 71/72 both the Dual gate and standard floor shifter used the same neutral safety/reverse light switch as the column shift cars did. the linkage to the column is still used for the steering wheel lock so they decided to save some money and delete the shifter mounted ones.
