Insert the stud on the cable into the shift lever's slotted hole and tighten the retaining nut. Repeat this step for the select lever. Remove the drill bits from the control assembly and road test the car, checking for smooth shifting and engagement of each gear. Fine-tune the adjustment if necessary after the road test.
