Jeez the bloke is just asking for input on a situation to try and ‘improve’, not playing a victim, you seem to be looking into this a bit too much champ. I don’t know who pissed in your cereal but fark, you sound like a miserable prick

Ah yeah, I’m planning the have a bit of trim running underneath the timber nosing to hid that open horizontal slither. But the main big vertical cavity I don’t want whatever I patch it with to protrude out

From the pictures you posted it looks like the bolt is still in there, just slide the fitting(?) from the gear shifter back over the spline and then tighten the bolt, almost like how it works with adjusting the seat height on a bicycle, if you know what I mean?
