Any possibility of posting a picture of what that stripe looks like on yours?  Hard to imaging from your description.

To make it easier to see the position of the shift lever itself I painted a white stripe down the side of the lever.  One hint if you do this.  Make sure you are on the level and set the hand brake.  Then, when you paint the stripe (mask off with blue tape) move the lever all the way to the rear.  All of the lever is then exposed to paint the stripe on it.
