I bought mine used, and I am not 100% convinced the cables are correct currently—hence the need for the alignment tool.

I'm considering borrowing one and making it into a 3d model and having it 3d printed.

I will send you main if you promises to return it.
I shipped an airbag cover to Lithuania for $20.
With that said, it took some time to get there. You are probebly better off with this option:

Can’t hurt to try. If they are off, you won’t be able to shift it well. If you were driving the car with shifter you are taking out, then it shouldn’t be any problem.
