i'm in the process of installing a B&M shifter into my 98 boxster, i have the shifter removed and the new one ready to install.
when removing the old shifter there is a white square plastic clip on the pivot ball. but the b&m unit is not supplied with this, the clip is not large enough to fit the new pivot ball, do i need the clip? it seems like there will be a lot of play if i cant get the square clip on the pivot ball.
i'm at step # 46 of the B&M intstallation sheet.
