I am converting from bench to buckets in my 71 and was wondering what goes in the dash where the column shift gear shift indicator is?

usually the seats will not interfere with this indicator so there is no reason to be concerned with it.

71velle, if you are going to have an indicator for gear selection on a floor shift, the answer to your question is that the dash indicator would be blacked out, thats the way my 70 w/4speed was, you could get creative and use it by tying it into the floor shift.

Sorry about that.....I am also putting in a console along with the buckets and won't need the gear shift indicator in the dash anymore because it is in the console and was wondering if there was a black out panel or something that goes in where the gear shift indicator was in the dash.

It is a different removable dash piece. You will have to find a dash that was installed for a non column shifted car, or be creative and make a piece to black it out.
