What's that part and does anyone have one?

I was going to start pulling my broke transmission out. I still have the overdrive light left over from the Auto transmission. When i start my car it blinks 10 or so times really rast and its annoying, maybe because i don't have the auto transmission. HAHA. I haven't seen that piece in any of the junkyard cars because they are fairly ripped apart when i get to them. Is that just a plastic cover piece in the manual trans cars or is it something else. Does anyone have one? Thanks. Nick

In the S13 where the O/D light is(left of the radio right of the steering wheel), does that have a plastic part that goes over it from the manual S13. Does anyone have one?

Well...if this helps at all, here's my S13, manual transmission.



I don't see anything like you described, but perhaps the photo isn't showing the right area.

*i think* there is no coin holder on the autos, and instead a little display panel is there for overdrive.

No coinholder! That's reason enough to do an auto --> manual swap.

It doesn't seem like a great place to put an overdrive indicator, but then again it doesn't seem like a great place for a coinholder either. Unless the light is somewhere on the center console, I can't imagine where else it could be.

The overdrive light in the auto is in the sameplace as the coin holder in the manual. I have done the swap already and need to get rid of the light. Which brings the next question. Does any one have one? Nick

Sorry man...if I ditch the coinholder I'll have a big hole there! :)

Might wanna try the Buy/Sell forum. I must admit, "WTB S13 Coin Holder" is pretty funny.

Still...I'm in the market for that little plastic panel where the power side mirror controls would be, so don't listen to a word I say. ;)

washer fluid idicator light would be impossible to install if i didn't have one to begin with. And it probably will be even harder to find concidering in the junkyard that stuff is already gone and a big black square hole. Nick
