I need to get inside shifter well of my '95 940. While removing the center console for a good cleaning, emergency brake adjustment, and putting everthing back together, I noticed that the shifter lamp was no longer working. I have no idea how that happened (I wasn't messing around with the shifter), but I had to remove the console again to get back in there. I found the lamp (not easy to access and replace, but doable). In the process of doing this, I lost my shift interlock button somewhere at the bottom of the shifter well. I can feel it down there with my finger, but I can't see it with that big plastic plate under the shifter. If I could remove just the handle portion of the shifter, slide off the plate, I could better look of the inside and probably fish out the plastic interlock button, replace the lamp,. etc.
I don't see a screw or anything that allows you remove the handle. And the garbage repair manual I have (Chiltons) doesn't seem to mention how to do this.
Can someone describe or point me to the procedure?
Thanks in advance for any help?
