Here's the solution for you:

Chevrolet Cobalt Cable Clamp - TWM Performance

With this clamp, the cable will not come lose from the shifter. This issue is more common on the LNF, mainly because of the NLS feature I guess.

Happy Holidays!

Group buy, maybe? Pre-order price is listed on the website. So, does that mean it's not quite available yet?

lol. I hope you will be able to get it soon dude. I live in this country for almost 11 years now, and I was able to accomplish things and goals that in Italy were only in my best dreams. So many guys here are not aware of how lucky they are for being born in this country. I wish I was. Everytime I hear an american complaining about the economy and the job situations, I always propose them to try to go live in certain countries of europe, such as Italy, France, Turkey, Jugoslavia, Czech Republic, Slovakia or Greece for a couple of years, they would come back here kissing the floor of the airport as soon as they would get off the plane. That's what I did for real after I came back here from my first trip back to Italy since I moved here. And I'm so thankful to it, that I only spend my money for american products because I want to help in full the economy of the country that made most of my dreams come thru. Only on tires I don't go american, but japanese (Yokohama or Toyo), other than that, I buy only american goods, unles I need something that America doesn't build.

Thanks dude. It is the pure truth. I always try to spend my money on american products.
And you have no idea how mad I get when I hear a foreigner talking bad about America!! I always tell him "then why don't you go back to your country"?
