The piece of silver plastic that surrounds the shift **** has become loose over time (or perhaps was loosened after the TSB fix to the reverse lockout cable adjustment for 1st gear pop-out issues...which didn't fix it BTW). I know this is the source of the creaking noise as I drive because if I press my thumb down on the plastic behind the shift **** it's completely silent.

Any recommendations? Adhesive, noise dampening insulation, etc? How easy is it to take off this piece around the shifter to get at the problem?

Thanks!
