Default Breakage accident (very much a noob)

So I'm new to this whole car thing. Long story short car runs fine but the inside stripped clean besides the bare basics to drive. Luckily I have like maybe 65-70 % of the parts so honestly I will have lots of questions. In process of putting back in my dash I hit my shifter **** with my leg and broke it. Its an automatic **** so it no longer clips down. May be a dumb question but is it possible to change it to a twist **** like the manuals? If so how do u go about doing it? If not what a good place to buy replacement ***** that are not like 40-50 $?

Welcome- and that's gotta be the strangest intro post in a long time. How did you hit the shifter so hard that you broke it off? You might have noticed the auto shift **** has a mechanism to 'lock out' the shifter and prevent it from being accidently moved. So there's no way to do anything but swap the entire mechanism out.

As for finding another one for less than $40-50, it's unlikely. Consider it a cost of your education in "this whole car thing".

Ok thanks anyway figured it wasn't possible by looking at it. Another wierd question do u know of any book or any site that has a full list of interior parts including the carpeting ? I'm having a hard time finding anything besides a few stock photos of parts.
