I ordered a new release lever for my 2000 C2.  The part number is 996.116.712.03.  This part number is superseded by part number 997.116.712.01.  There is a physical difference between the two, but most noticeable difference (photo 13) post-25004-0-50347900-1429394180_thumb.j is the 'rounded' grooves.  The new part does not have the same grooves.

 

There is also a piece, called an intermediate piece that goes inside the transmission where the release spring goes (photo 12)post-25004-0-14418400-1429394292_thumb.j

 

In the original release lever (on the left in photo 12), the grooves fit nicely into the intermediate piece.  However, on the new release lever, it does not have these same grooves; as a result, it's very difficult to attach the release lever to the transmission side when the intermediate piece is on there.

 

My question:  With the new release lever, is there also a new (different design) intermediate piece?  I noticed the intermediate part number is the same regardless of the release level design; or do I just need to apply more pressure to get the release lever on over the spring?  I can provide more pictures and explanation if needed.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
