2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse Inside of shifter.

I need to know what the white plastic piece is called thats inside the selector gear..? The only other way I can describe the piece I need is-When you push the button on the side of the shifter it pushes a white plastic rod type thing down to shift from park to drive. I'v done research on the internet, but with out the name of the piece I can't find the replacement part.


It would be so greatly appreciated if you could help me with this. My car is drivable, but it's a pain to have to push my nail down on that white thing every time I drive, reverse, etc.

Thank you!
Teri
