if you have them, use a pair of vice grips instead, so you don't have to hold it... a pair of vice grips will fit down on that, and brace themselves against the little lip of the surrounding area...
give you an extra hand to hold it with.
If you can, replacing the bushins wouldn't hurt either.. makes for a smoother shift.
Make sure, even if you don't replace the bushings, you put the one right behidn the shifter back on right, or you'll have a loose shifter...
won't effect your shifting but it's annoying.
