Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?
Very productive day. Went down to Orielys and bought a push button type switch $10 (starter switch). All I was looking for was a switch that had a long threaded area for plenty of adjustment. You can see in the pics what I did. Found center of the shifter shaft and transferred to bracket. Found a suitable vertical location and drilled the 3/4" hole. Also, before I drilled the hole I made sure that there was plenty of room inside the hump bracket for the switch to fit. Had to make a spacer to get the correct amount of "push" on the button but it worked out perfect. As you go into park the button makes continuity between the poles. If you notice I had to remove a little part of the brass cap that goes over the button to clear the arm that's attached to the shifter shaft. The last three pics are with the shifter installed in the hump bracket. Now I can connect a couple of wires and make them long enough to make a connection with the wires that go to the tranny switch so that I won't have to remove the console when I put the 2004R into the car. It will also ensure that I can't start the car in gear when I test the tranny.
