Crazy question. But what clamp are you guys talking about ? I replaced my cables about 6 months ago due to being stiff. Are you guys talking about the clamp that holds to two cables close together and then screws into the body of the car by the dp? What advatage does the ottp clamp offer? And how much does it cost ? Thanks !

It's like $40 I think for the clamp. Did u see the plastic clips on the cables. The ottp/twm are metal with 3 screws to hold the cable in place not some plastic bullsht. You will put the new clamp on the right cable the one that controls the up and down movment of the shift
