5 speed shift knob cover coming off

[opus]

The schematic cover, the one that shows 1,2,3,4,5 and R that is on the top of the shift knob keeps coming off when the weather gets warm. I noticed that there are two indentations below where the cover goes so I am worried if I stick it on with super glue or something like that we won't be able to get it back off if we need to get to those indentations. Please let me know what you have done if this has happenend to you, or if it would be ok to just super glue the cover on. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

I dunno...I just superglued the thing back on yesterday. I figured that the entire thing can be screwed off and replaced, so it wasn't a big deal. I remember Automobile Magazine had the same thing happen to them during their long term test and if I remember correctly they glued it back on.

Doctorz,
Thanks for the feeback, just wanted to see if anyone else had done it.
