They concluded that on some cars aftermarket shifters would rattle no matter what and had no idea why.

Sadly, if you google this problem you will find folks complaing about it for nearly every type of vehicle. It had me pretty stressed out when making my decision, guess I got lucky.
I actually got a not back from TWM. They say that some of the shifter can go out the door without an important "O" ring that is present in the reverse lockout mechanism. They have offered to send one out. I told the dealer to just keep the shifter and return it. However, I am going to swing by there and verify if the ring is present or not. Without the o ring - it will rattle.

We shall see - again
