Based on my one time experience of swapping out 01 shift lever with stock 997 shifter.
I think the green clip holds the shift lever for both the up/down and left/right "by-design" neutral position. With the Transmission set at neutral, cable acts as intermediate piece connecting the two ends.
my installation had the driver side cable 1/4 of an inch short of the original resting point on its cradle. The passenger side cable/cradle was exactly at the marking.
In retrospect, had I removed the green clip and pulled the driver side cradle back to match the marking, the unit would have been tight in engaging 1st and 2nd gear.
