Oh, and one other question - Bentley specifies "MSO2" lubricant" for these
internal plastic parts.  I have some assembly lube that says MSO2 on it,
would that work?  Or is this just standard wheel bearing grease?  (Which I
of course have none of in stock...)

OK - I'm finally around to replacing all the "guts" of my shifter.  I have
removed the shell that contains all the plastic bits, and I can't figure out
how it is supposed to come apart.

Does the whole assembly press-fit into the steel shell (and therefore press
back out), or is there another trick?
