Does anyone know where I can find a gear shift indicator for a 1966 Delta 88 Convertible?

If this is all you need (see Image below) Jegs list them on their site,and also on EBay for 4 speed automatic (all 4" Columns). If you need the complete column EBay list chrome column complete that says it will fit a 1966 Oldsmobile. Larry

Exactly what part are you looking for? Unless you have a floor shift, the gear indicator is integrated into the dash. Do you need the clear lens with PRNDSL? Do you need the needle? Do you need the link from the needle to the steering column?

jgraham

Thank you both for the replies.

Rocketowner: Would it be possible for you to send a link to that part on Jegs? I couldn't find it.

Joe: All I need is the clear lens with PRNDSL. Do you have any ideas on places I could check? I would like to find an original part if possible.

Thanks again.

The one I found was made by Ididit #535-2600050010 and is sold by Jegs. Is is a universal unit for 4 Speed Automatics with 4" Steering columns and sells for $26.66. Good luck ,Larry

Did I miss something? I thought the OP was looking for an OEM indicator that goes in the dash?

Rocketowner

Joe ,sorry, I was under the impression that he was unable to find any of the original parts that went in the dash,that you was referring to in post #3, and I was giving him another option ,if the original parts could not be purchased. Reading post #4 he stated "Joe ,all I need is the clear lens with PRNSLR, and ask you if you had any ideas of places he could check ,that he would like to have the original part if possible. Since you did not answer ,I and probably he, thought the original clear lens was not available. Larry

jgraham

Joe, Yes, I am looking for the original part that goes in the dash.

Larry, Thank you for giving me another option if that doesn't work out.

Would this work?

Well, from above:

The 1966 dash and indicator is different from the 67-68 part you posted.

Graham, if you post your location one of our members might know of a parts car near you.

Rocketowner

Graham,if your shift indicator looks like this one below,I may know someone with a parts car.I will check and let you know. Larry

jgraham

Olds 64: Thanks, but that isn't the part I need. I am located in north Louisiana.

Larry: Yes, that looks like what I need. I am attaching a picture of the dash in my car.

joe_padavano

Any chance that lens is loose down inside the dash?

jcdynamic88

the letters are attached to a bigger piece of plastic shield that's held in with 2 screws,i do have one.

Part can come from any TurboHydraMatic equipped 1965-66 Olds B (88/Starfire) or C (98) with column shift. Keep in mind some Jetstar 88s had 2-speed Jetaways.

jhoppeolds

If 'jcdynamic88's part doesn't work out, I've got this one. No cracks or breaks. There's a thin piece of something like paper on the front of it that has a small tear on the bottom. Looks like the bezel is chipped but it's not. $25 plus the shipping.

Rocketowner

Looks like the problem has been solved. Larry

jcdynamic88

if jhoppeolds part is the right one go for it,mine is still in a car and we are supposed to get a foot of snow so i won't be interested in removing it soon.jc

jgraham

jcdynamic88: I wanted to touch base about the gear shift indicator you mentioned back in March now that the snow has melted. Would you be able to post a photo of what you have?

jcdynamic88

if you could pm your email i will take a picture.i would have replied sooner but been away.

jgraham

jcdynamic88

jgraham
