Console shift light assembly?

hey Folks,

So I pulled the center console on my 67 to replace the carpet and clean/restore the console itself. The shift light hasn't worked since I got the car last year, and I figured it was a burnt bulb, but once I got it up and out (and found .83 cents in change) I found the light had been disassembled. I put a new bulb in and it works, but frankly I can't figure out how it goes back together with shift selector. Probably the exhaustion has set in (and the fact that my every finger has nicks and scratches). Any diagrams out there?

Thanks!

Tom.

The Bulb slides into the bulb slider assembly that then slides onto the plastic runner holding onto it with the 4 tangs.

I suppose I could go out to the garage and photograph it tomorrow for you.

Looking through the AAPD catalog looks like I'm missing the little plastic bar that connects the bulb. I'll look around to see if it fell out somewhere.
