I hope someone can give you a solution that's not as drastic as mine.

When I encountered this condition on my '89 I took a Sawzall to it. Worked real good. Only thing is you need another shifter (really, just the lever itself, everything else from your old shifter would still be good).
Lucky for me I had one. Things may be different for you. Still, if you go this route you ought to be able to find a replacement fairly easily.

Under this scenario the setscrew is irrelevant.

EDIT: It just occured to me that you may be talking about an auto, so maybe this response is useless. In either case, I hope it doesn't come to something like this for you.
