this may also be a little late; I installed the 997 stock shifter into my 01 boxster and in the process, asked lots of q's and got many recommendation on another thread couple of years ago.
what confused me was a step to mark the cable before taking it off the original shifter. this step I believe is only good for aftermarket shifter.
for Porsche, using the green clip to lock the shifter in and dropping the cable in the linkage cradle does the job.
perfect alignment first time.
good luck
