The plastic silver insert in my 2018 Touring just fell out. I put it back in but it is clearly not solidly seated and will pop out again - it even rattles a bit. I might have a broken tab or something but is there a particular way to secure it? Should I just glue it in? Get a new insert?

I've had two replaced on my '18 GT3 for that exact thing.

I say warranty. I assume that car still has the warranty?

I haven’t had that issue (yet) but would love to replace that plastic one for something made of aluminum or carbon fiber. Does anyone sell just that piece?

I don't know, it was supposed to be CPO'ed but then Chris got pissed at the dealer...

Chris Harris has had his replaced twice on his Touring as well .

Same thing happened to me while at the track so I used a tie wrap to finish out the day and when I got home two dabs of silicone has fixed the problem so far. The dealer won't or can't sell just that piece so a repair is C$800 for the whole stick!

I had the carbon fiber R shifter in my touring and it was terrific. It might be worth just replacing the whole thing with that.

Function first.

That is nice... But in general I like stock shifters... They're getting so rare.

1. Nice, who from?
2. Is it weighted ? I find the heavier the **** the better the shift feel.

Company is called function first. Very weighted. Between that and the numeric short shifter has such a precise feel. Love them both. No affiliation just happy customer.

+1 - I am three years and 18,000 miles into my GT3 with the R shifter. It looks brand-new.

Go to auto store get 3M TRIM adhesive, wear some glove and careful dab meet joints with that part. It won't fall off again.

My warranty **** has been on order for a year and a half. Although I have deviated stitching. I super glued it back while I wait.
