It takes some tries and some patience. Maybe someone else has a better way, but I've done it that way the last few times.

Used a string as well, but I still couldn't re-install. I ended up disconnecting the shaft from the bushing in the rear tunnel and then installing the shifter. This worked, but it was a ***** to re-connect the shaft, but eventually I got it.
