All you have to do it tighten it one more turn. It will start getting tight when the front is pointing towards the passenger seat. Keep turning it till it rotates all the way around. Once it is pointing straight ahead it will never move again. I did mine about a year and a half ago and it hasn't moved since.

Mine has a little hex screw facing the ashtray that looks like it is keeping it attached to the shifter (?).Looks factory, but who knows.
