Finishing my A4LD to M5R1 swap.

What is the proper m5r1 shifter bushing assy order? Looks like wave washer, washer with 3 little tabs pointing up, lower blue plastic bushing, shifter stub, upper blue plastic bushing, washer with 3 little tabs pointing down, wave washer, gasket, metal retaining plate and three torx head screws...is this correct?

All the trucks I pulled my parts from seemed to be missing parts and all assembled differently.
 






Now that I look again...

Looks like how it has to go on mine because the wave washer won't fit inside the tabbed washer. I have parts from several different trucks and all the same won't fit inside the tabbed washer. So here's the order of assembly:

circular shim
Tabbed washer

upper bushing
shifter stub
lower bushing

tabbed washer
circular shim
