FTW!!!

Im guessing mine are messed up, cause mine
a) didnt stick out that far to begin with
b) didnt budge at all.




Hey, don't fret. I had an early 1999 and mine did not depress to move the cables. My orange tabs had to be popped up about 1/4" to release the friction on the cable slides.

What I did was release the tabs this way with a small thin flat screwdriver, put the transmission in neutral by hand, then have a friend hold the shifter centered. Once it was centered I pushed in on the orange tabs until they clicked back into place and the alignment was perfect.

I don't know anything about pushing IN on the tabs to release them, only popping them out. So there must be two types out there.
