Upper pic: On cars & trucks with a separate shift lever, the detent, shown as 7A115 .. is inside the transmission.

Lower pic: On newer cars/trucks where the shift tube goes down inside the steering column, the detent, shown as 7A216 (looks completely different), bolts to the bottom of the upper flange.

A tab on the shift lever fits up against the detent.
