By nature, it is a "****" . Not too much you can do to get away from it

Another is for when you go back to "P", it will let you release your keys. There's quite a bit of work involved but it's really just mechanical. I just modified what we have there now, so that I don't have to push a button (from original shifter) to get out of "P". I installed a servo so that when I hit my brakes, it pushes this lever down to release it from "P". Then it's only a matter of installing the shifter **** from Momo. The only modifications from original is that I disconnected the switch/sensor for when I go back to "P", I can take out my keys.
this is what he did
