on my 88, there is a little wire, looks like dental floss, that controls
where teh needle is in relation to the letters, try adjusting this. in
order to get to mine the earlier daks have a panel below the steering wheel
held on by 2 screws, remove these and you should be all set.

My R/T is the same way, I just tug on the lever once it is in drive.
Annoying but minor.

Yeah, my 99 SLT has kinda the same thing. First time I let my wife drive it
she had it in "R" gunnin' it and we wasn't going in either "Reverse" or
"Racing" whatever that "R" is supposed to mean. Kinda have to guess if it is
really in gear or not.
