My solution was to locate another shifter from same year vehicle in a junkyard in the next state, and have it shipped to me. Replacement is a simple swap, just pay attention to removal of trim components to get it out, don't drop any screws deep into the driveline hump, and swap all the electrical harness plugs correctly. I found a schematic of the trim components needing to be removed (I think on one of those threads) which was very helpful.
OK here you go:
