Default Gear **** **** for an automatic

I need a gearshift **** for my 1986 5.0 litre RHD auto.
I only actually need the 'T' bit as that's the bit that's broken.
I could live with a LHD one but RHD would be better.

I would idealy like a 'replacement' push down **** like my other car has but they not to be available any more.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks Cadillaic, that's like my other car and I agree, they are great.
Where did you get it?

This came from Paul. You push the entire **** down to move the lever. He can cover it any way you like. I chose the pasha leather.

Google "design Paul Champagne Leather"
If you've never seen his site/ work before you will be amazed. Email him from the site and ask about this shift ****. I don't think he has them on his site at the moment, so ask.

I think you can also removed the button and plug on the ends of the T shifter, and swap it around to the other side to go from a LHD to a RHD shifter.

Black - remember it is RHD.
I also have LHD T shifters for $379.

I have no idea why LHD is more expensive than RHD - it is the way of Porsche.

You are a gem Roger, but I've decided to go with the 'push down' type [like my other 86S] from Paul Champagne.
