If its seperating on top, right under the shift plate, you could glue the vinyl to the plastic and hold it with vise grips. It would have to be done every few inches. Worked pretty good for me.

what kind of glue did you use. I tried that for the second time on the weekend and it still peels back.

I used Krazy glue. Even that peels if it isn't vised down for at least an hour or two.
