The clip under the dash - could you be more specific about which clip you are referring to?

If you are referring to the clip that holds the shift cable to the bracket
The one with the little hole that must be poked to remove the cable
You can use a wire tie to hold the cable up and in the slot
Snip off the rest of the broken clip and put the wire tie through the hole
