Replacement shift ****

The back plastic piece on my OEM Turbo shift **** broke off. It still works but looks like crap. I find it strange that I'm having a difficult time finding a replacement aftermarket ****.

Besides the Rennline one, are there any alternatives? I like the Rennline **** but would like the shift-pattern numbers printed on the top like the OEM.

Thanks!

It is the little silver plastic piece from the top arrow to the bottom arrow, but on the side facing the center console. My middle finger sits right into the groove now so I'm always flipping someone off!

Maybe you only want an aftermarket ****, but if you're looking for OEM, Suncoast has a great selection...

Damn, I just took a look at Suncoast, which I respect and use a lot, and saw their "*****" range in price up to about $1,000 . An oem replacement is $270 or something thereabouts. The Rennline at $90 is looking and feeling better and better and I have the shift pattern down by now .......but to each their own. GL with your decision.
