    Shifter install

    Help! I think I screwed up. I'm installing the short throw base and R shifter. Just because Kev's instructions say to be careful not go break the bottom clip on the bezel.....well, you guessed it, I broke it. Of course my theory is it was already broken under there.
    Am I f*cked or what? Anyone know how much a new bezel costs? It seems perhaps that little plastic bottom clip doesn't do much anyhow, so I may be OK as it is. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the fast reply Kev. I was starting to wig out about it. I hate when things I'm working on break, unless of course it doesn't really matter... then I can deny that anything went wrong. Peace.

    haha - totally agree. When I broke the one on my S2 I was bummed. When I took it off my S3 for the first time, I was so careful and I didnt' break it!!! It waited until the second time I took it off

    I will refer to it as the "breakaway tab" in the future
