Looking good!!
Yeah, I don't remember there being any springs under the inspection cover when I took mine off. I don't know what sensors would have springs on them though. If you remove the springs out of your shifter housing, shift back and forth between gears, and still have the neutral return function from within the transmission, then that means your springs and detent ***** are still intact inside the transmission. So who knows where they came from, but I wouldn't worry about it.
Keep up the good work!

Sorry the two I made are already called for by Ali and LoveSCs. I can make more if people want, but Ali and LoveSCs can tell ya my buddy works slow. They've been waiting on these pieces for several weeks now. I have a feeling that there probably won't be massive amounts of interest in these pieces, so unless there is a some interest from other folks, I'm not sure I want to invest in making another batch.

The other issue is that despite me coming up with this design, having a buddy able to machine them for cheap, and me actually caring about this community and not trying to rip people off I would in turn sell them for hardly any profit (probably around $25 shipped), the issue is I will probably get the ban hammer from mods for trying to sell them. So unfortunately, short of me just giving away my CAD file to everyone for free, I'm pretty much unable to do anything with this for the community / forum. I'm not totally against just sharing the CAD file, and maybe I'll end up doing that as it might be useful to some. But I'd wager the average person here probably doesn't have the means fabricate, or have 'a buddy' fabricate for cheap. So they're probably looking at paying a machine shop a lot more than $25 to get this custom made for them from billet aluminum. Oh well, I'd love to help out more, but that's how it goes. Perhaps I'll share the file later on after I hear back from Ali and LoveSCs.

Got your pieces guys. Ali yours u can see the extra little notch I told u about. So again these were made just cuz the guy had enough material left to make two more. But other than that, no real plans to make any more as it would probably **** off mods or something.

It's kind of funny I just found this thread. If I had not designed all my shifters almost a year ago it would look like I copied you. My shifter has a true reverse lockout so the piece you posted the photo of while it may look similar is definitely different from yours. I had actually planned on showing the community how to build this shifter since it is a cheap option but found this thread. Everyone just needs to be careful because that is made from cheap Chinese cast aluminum and could fail on you at some point.
