Is the little plastic screen with the different letters on it just slightly off from where it should be?

I'm not sure. I took the shifter cluster out and everything looks good.

you have to set the little plastic tab down in the gap or else it'll be off. Mine was off when I bought it and I've accidentally put it back wrong before and made it slightly off.
