Messed up my shifter
I just finished installing new shifter bushing and putting car back together. I must of installed something wrong because neutral sits were 5th should be. Does anyone know what I screwed up so I can fix it?

Gooby you were 100% right the shifter was backwards. I turned it around and all the gears are where they should be. Thank you

You aren't the first to do that, and you won't be the last. It's always kinda funny to hear the reaction when the installer realizes what they did wrong. So simple, yet so easy to do wrong.
