    Nah, Mine did the same, tried glue, but the material is too weak. It's a dodgy little plastic piece with a metal pin thru it to lock into the selector, so u don't knock the gear stick accidentally out of gear.

    What happens is the metal just screws up the plastic over time. What I think does it is if you tend to rest your hand on the gear stick.

    The easiest and most effective way to do it is to just replace the whole peice. While your at it, chuck a chrome button in
