Nah, I think it's more than that in my case... feels like the entire shift lever is off.

Did more than I wanted to this weekend,

New alternator (old one crapped the bed)
New battery (might as well)
Spark plugs (NGK Iridium's)
New fuel filter
Oil change, new oil filter
New air filter
Wheel Spacers (RC's)
Removed fender flares
Marked fenders for trimming

That's about it for now

Hopefully I can trim the fenders this weekend.

Oh ok. Put it in neutral and pull up on the shifter handle really hard to pop out off then pull up the plastic to check out what could be wrong.

Put some big homemade 8" 2-way speakers in the back as a temporary rear speaker setup. If they weren't so bulky I'd keep them, sounds really good.

To add to this put your ebrake on and mash your brakes. When you shift to neutral don't hesitate you need to hold button Down and yank good then you can pop shift lever indicator off.
