EDIT: I got the console out.
My friend is like "Let me see it" and I was like "Wait" and he pulled hard on the indicator strip breaking it in two. So do I need to remove the shift indicator bezel to replace the broke indicator strip? It looks like there is a white piece I need to unscrew...and I need to order the part from Ford too I guess. I might just throw a shiftboot on the stupid thing...:(
Thanks.
