Floppy Stick No Reverse

Had this little fella pop off the end of one of my six speed manual shift cables recently, causing the linkage to come undone. Clutch had recently been changed. As a result, a very floppy shift lever that you could still get into a gear, but not reverse. Luckily, it landed on top of the bell housing and just sat there until I fished it out with a magnet.

Kind of disappointing that a single missing clip can disable a car. If I hadn't found it, a tow to the dealer, a $150 diagnostic charge and ??? to pop in a new one.
Dealer is providing 2 new clips at no charge. Easy to install if you have a strong light.

Real OEM says the part number is 25118609053 or older pn 25112754813, depending on vin and build date.
Anybody else have this issue?
