Shift **** question

I'll admit I'm a newbie, so don't bite my head off for asking this... I want to replace the aftermarket shift **** that I have, but I'm having trouble finding any. I am looking for one for an auto tranny that includes an overdrive button. The only one I can find is this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Autom...ayphotohosting

There has got to be more than one kind of **** that fits our car, but where can I go to find it? Any suggestions would really help.

What I'm a little worried about is that the current **** that's installed in my car (I didn't install it) doesn't seem to fit properly. It has worked, but I dislike the fact that there's a plastic tie at the bottom of where it attaches that seems to "secure" it. Yet, there have been times when the plastic slides off where it is supposed to secure and nothing seems to happen then. Finally, in the past, I have had issues with the overdrive just coming on out of nowhere. It seems like loose wiring and goes off when I press the overdrive button on and then off, but that has stopped happening...very janky. Is there some size or measurement issue that I have to think about with the ****?

Thanks everyone.

those don't look good at all unless you shorten the shift rod. Too bling for me too. Get a stock shifter and use that and shorten it.
