Still chasing one of these if anyone has one. I have a shifter, and the console insert piece itself but it is a Powerglide insert, so either I have to convert it or buy another. There are three parts different:

The clear plastic bit with the LSDNP on it.
The metal piece with square holes in it.
A plastic bit also with square holes with 2x blue stripes on it, Powerglide is green stripes.

I can modify the second and third bits if I have to but would rather buy an original if I can find one. Normally I’d just leave the Powerglide one there and it will work perfectly just won’t show 2nd, but as it is being Engineered it has to display all gears. I thought of pretending it is a Powerglide but it has to be brake and swerve tested so they’ll probably figure that out.

Hi HK,

I noticed on Ebay they are now making the Wiring Looms for HK-G GTS consoles now. ($75)

Did you see it.

Cheers.

If your still looking for these parts there's a mob who are now making complete new inserts. Walmat design. Just make sure you tell google you want walmat and not Walmart and they come up on top of page.

Cool, thank you. I had a look but only a Facebook page at the moment which I can’t see. Not in a hurry so I’ll wait until they get a normal web page. Great news someone is making one!

Hi HK
Are you still looking for your 3 items for your trimatic console.
I have a Powerglide with a trimatic original console and have been looking for the Powerglide bits.
I just purchased a new powerglide slider on Ebay which was totally missing in my console.
On Ebay, look up Quadrant Slider, Quadrant Guide Replacement and Quadrant Coloured Selector, available as Powerglide or Trimatic.
But Ebay is not selling the clear plastic piece with LSDNRP (Trimatic) or LDNRP (Powerglide)

My Car was originally Powerglide in the eighties. But it had a T400 in it when I bought it. So in the eighties I put Trimatic Slider Parts in it, but it still doesn't line up properly when shifting. Its using a Rod to shift the Trans not a Cable as in the Later models. One day I will cut some Perspex up and use Letraset Letters and a plate with the coloured squares in the right Positions I guess.

Yes, the Trimatic shifter is a little different to the Powerglide one. When you put them side by side it becomes clear the ratio of T-bar to rod movement is different. I’m hoping to make the Powerglide one work with the TH350C by trial and error. I am getting new Trimatic bits to convert the console quadrant.
