So as an update, if you feel your button start to feel funny, take it off all the way if you can do it without breaking it more, and you might be able to save it without tearing apart the center console. There are two short legs toward the driver which keep the button from popping out, and two "arch" legs with holes in the middle that capture two pins toward the shifter which hold the thing in the button assembly and allow it to pivot. Mine had a broken, but not broken-off, arch leg, which I was able to repair with gorilla-brand super glue gel, and I replaced the button and all is well for now. Yay.

By the by, this seems like an excellent candidate for a replacement upgrade part made out of something like titanium. NEVER WEAR OUT YOUR DSC BUTTON AGAIN! SAVE 0.5 GRAMS! BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL $500
