Shifter cable problem

When I was installing a new engine and transmission (TH700 Raptor) I did break my old shifter cable. It had a plastic thing on the end an it broke. I bought a new one from Summit (some chinese made product). It was no problem installing it but now I cant but the transmission in Park, the wire just bends. Id doesnt have that plastic thing on the end to support the cable. I might be able to let it work by adjusting the shifter position but this cable seems to be less quality than the one I had in the car before.

Summit and classicindustries only sell aftermarket cables, where can I buy an OEM cable (I am from Iceland and would have to have it sent over here).
