yeah it will go in so far then if you twist the linkage on top of the box side to side a little and push the drill bit it will go in a bit further and then it will lock it so you carnt move it at all

Undo the bolt, then put the screwdriver in the hole inside, then twist the part of the linkage attached to the gearbox whilst pressing on the little button a the top of the pic below. Once it's lined up right the button will push in then let go of the linkage, then the button which should stay pressed in. Tighten the nut, take the screwdriver out then give the gearstick a bit of a wiggle an it should release the button on the box. Job done

If it's in neutral you can twist it side to side, if it's in gear you can't. If you need to get it out of gear you just push it into the gearbox or pull it out depending on which gear it's in, it'll only go one way.
