    The side covr will probably also have a switch on it to show 4th gear, so you might want to use your old side cover.

    I used to buy them for $50 at swapmeets but invariably all I'd get was a case, input shaft cover, extension housing and side cover. Rest was normally r00ted.

    I've bought exchange M21 boxes and referred mates to a guy in Blacktown who specialises in mainly the Holden Aussie boxes, never had any problems, well rebuilt. Just take a complete box in for exchange.

    Called him now, currently $495 exchange, on the shelf. No relation to me, but don't mind plugging someone who has given me good service, J & VR Transmissions 1/6 Chigaco Ave Blacktown (02) 96717904

    He is way cheaper than anyone else I ever got a quote off (up to $1,500)

    cool, wonder how long he will be able to do those. Most of the time I think the cluster is pg13'ed in them. At the below price that doesnt leave much in fat to cover labour and other incidentals.
