The missing element

Ok guys i got a automatic festy on the counsil to the top right theres a rectangular hole what is this ??? Its about quarter inch long

Picture or more exact location description please.

Its to the passanger side of the shifter lever i got two automatics neither one has anything in this odd ball square

[bravekozak]

It could possibly be for the alignment pin to hold the slider in position when installing the shift quadrant.

Its the no battery power shifter unlock . For towing or easy moving ,stick a small screw driver in and it unlocks the shifter without the key on .

There's supposed to be a sliding piece. Probably broke off.

Even with the slider there, it doesn't really have enough leverage to move the shift lock-out out of place...

Ok is it suppost to be a open hole ? Or is there a clip that covers the mystry shifter lock delie doodad ? Lmao :p

[georgeb]

There's supposed to be a chinsy plastic slider that breaks off the first time you attempt to use it to override the shift lock mechanism. It's better without it because you can stick a screwdriver down there and pry now.

I was about to take a picture of mine but it's broken and gone too! My girl's car has one, I'll snap it when we get home.
