Replacement parts arrived today. I replaced the broken shifting pattern insert, and I tested the LED on a 9v battery. It glowed nicely, I'm sure it will handle 12v when it's wired in.

I bought two metal files: flat and round, and cleaned up the inside until it slipped on the lever nice and neat. Yes, it took a while but I'm satisfied with the fitting.

They sent a complete boot assembly too. I didn't break or tear anything, but that's still where I'm getting hung up. After trying for two hours, I just cleaned up and put the original shift knob back on. I can finally see how its "supposed" to fit, but I just can't spend any more time with the fitment.

I'll try again on Monday, my next day off.
