99 Forrester shift lever

Problems with my shift lever. The button on the lever does not engage all the way, so it is stuck in Park, luckily in my driveway.

I am expecting that I will simply have to replace the lever, anyone know of another common problem to cause this???

What is the best way to remove the console around it? Do I need a shop tool for the clips?

I am thinking this is an easy fix, I just need the time. Any differing opinions?

Dave

Do 99 Forresters have a Shift Lock mechanism like Nissans? If so you might be able to unlock the Shift Lock and move the shifter, just a thought.
