I haven't taken anything apart yet but thought I'd ask in advance if anyone knows what I'm going to find when I do. Misalignment of the indicator plate and the console top plate. Will this be as easy as loosening some bolts, realign and tighten or will I be finding a broken mess in there?

That is a little extreme but they never fit very well from the factory. Right, that wouldn't be all that too surprising to find out that's the way it rolled off the line. I'll be taking a look at it tomorrow. I'll update the post as I go - in case it helps someone else in the future.
