do you NEED the hot glue on it? or any adhesive?

[@garbcargarage1006]

Hot Glue will Help it Stay on the bottom and you wont see it

Will you need the shift boot retainer/collar?

[@garbcargarage1006]

Just the lower one, but it is easily transfered

Try putting some blue thread lock on it

[@Dave-ri4oi]

​@@jeremybennett5547are the threads stripped in the knob, the cat knob ended up stripping and I had to revert to old one because of the poor quality inner threads

This episode was my favourite so far. The only struggling Dave did was justifying spending dough on a rotten civic.
