Default Help! Please shed some light on shift linkage. Pic included.

Hi,

I was in the process of replacing the drivers side trans mount on my '99 (5 spd) and noticed the shifter cable. Please see picture. Am I just missing the retaining clip or is there more? I wonder how the car has even been shifting properly. Anyone's expertise would be greatly appreciated!

You are missing the shifter bushings, you can get some booger bushings for I think around $30 dollars, this is very common with manual neons.
