Here's a weird one that just happened today and I could sure use some help 
with.  I'm driving along, when the little plastic button on the left side of the 
shifter all of a sudden comes flying across right in front of me!  I had to 
put it back in to get it shifted back into Park when I got home.  It looks like 
the plastic at the far end (the part deepest inside the shifter) has probably 
busted because now it doesn't catch and just springs back out.

I used a wide rubberband over it, taped down with duct tape <GRIN>, to hold 
it in tension against its internal spring so I can keep driving and it won't go 
zooming off.  But, how do I fix this thing and what parts should I be looking 
for?
