6G Celicas Forums

Just purchased an automatic 97 Celica. Only one small problem with my beautiful new little car, the sliding panel that goes around the shifter is missing. This is becoming a headache to find online. Replacing it isn't a problem, I have the panel taken apart already, just need to find that silly piece. Any ideas?

In the Atlanta area there are plenty of junk yards where you can pull the part yourself. When I bought my car many interior parts were mysteriously missing. I picked them up at a junkyard for a few bucks.

Here is a site wher you can track down any part and find out what other years fits yours.

Great tool for getting parts numbers etc.

You mean that piece that slides with it when you change gears so that it fills the gap? To my knowledge, you have to get a whole new shifter because there's no way to get the shift knob with the overdrive off without breaking it. I tried to figure it out for more than an hour and couldn't find any other solution. If anyone knows how to get it off with out breaking it, please let him know!

*her. Haha I had most of the shifter console apart, and couldn't figure out how to get it on there either. I don't wanna pay for all that for that one piece,but I don't want anything to fall in there or spill uggh.
