Need help with my manual shifter
After just getting my rx 8 a few weeks ago I noticed a rattling noise coming from my shifter, usually when I was above 6000rpm or so.
I noticed the sound stopped if I places my hand on the shifter so I came to the conclusion it silver/chrome bit was making the noise, as it was also loose when I touched it.
Being stupid I pulled over and unscrewed the **** breaking the electrical wire.
Now I have three things I need help with.
Can I remove the Silver bit and replace it with a new one ( I noticed you could buy that piece separately online)
And what is the best way to fix the wire a simple soldering job?
Also am I running any risk of the wire catching alight as its just resting inside on the gear boot leather cover?
thanks in advance
