I adjusted mine yesterday. Simplest thing ever. Had friend hold the shifter in correct position and I popped the orange part in, slid the cable and popped it back up. I can now get in every gear and no grindage!

Anyone wanna host that elsewhere, so I can pin it, and PDF archive it so it will be available when CEG shifts its format, comming up?

Maybe so, but I can't view it. It wants me to sign in.

Just register real quick and login. All it is is a video of him showing how to pop the orange part in and out and slide the cable.

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.
