Need Automatic Shifter Part.
« on: September 02, 2017, 08:05:56 pm »
Working on a lady's car and found that the little clip that holds the automatic shifter knob onto the shifter is missing.  Anyone have one for sale?

Bend part of a large paper clip into a U and push it in to where the clip goes.
The more complex the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play.

Or a small finishing nail. You'll probably have to grind the head into a point.

Yes, that clip is the one.  Thought about the paper clip but could use a real one as a template.

Great!  Thank you.  Can you mail it to me so I get it fixed before I take the car back up there to her?  Call me and I'll give you my address.

There must be 3 of 4 around here, somewhere.  I keep losing them.  I should order a 10-pack.
