Glueing wouldn't allow it to go into the notches right, if at all. How are you using the shifter right now. I'll wait for Pat to chime in here, I'm not sure about shifters and hope mine stays intact.

Im still looking for a GXP shifter.... I came across a real 2005 GXP Shifter on ebay 2 weeks ago, but to me it looks like it could break soon also and for $60 i would be pissed if it broke!! So Anyone have any leads on a good used one? Im going to pick up a 2000 and up type shifter to use till i can get a GXP one b/c this rubber band thing around the shifter is just not working out... lol
