As far as I know your only choice is the replace the unit with new. If you do most folks go with the C6 units which will bolt right in place. The only difference is the shifter boot will need to be opened up to allow it to work. Also you would need a new shifter **** for a C6.

Thanks man, When I bought the car it came with a c6 z06 shifter.... or def. the **** as it uses an allen on the side, so I need to replace the box itself correct?

Yes, you would need to replace the box. If you know the previous owner, find out if they still have the new box that came with the shifter. When you buy a shifter from GM the box comes with it. Also, to get the box you will need to buy a complete shifter.
