Northing is good here. the bottom outer cable is more than half way out of it's holder and the top one is completely out of the holder. It will not shift unless the outer cable is mounted correctly.

So, I had them put back into place, but while driving today they both came out again, which driving.

I'll have the clutch out next week, so I'll be able to take a better look then.

The retaining clips are easily damaged when removing the tranny cable ends. I'm guessing whoever worked on the car last damaged them and reinstalled the cables without buying and installing new retaining clips.

There are very small detent's in the bracket into which the retaining rings must be inserted, You may have to bend them to hold in place or purchase new ones.
