4sp hump installation

I also thought to install it to fit the curve of the floor first because that would also be the position where the shifter sticks out nicely centered. But then I got a little confused that the seat hit the hump sliding it half way to the front. And the shifter boot would wrinkle up pretty weird. That´s why I wanted to install it that far forward.
Might it be that I got the wrong shifter / plate combination? What looks funny to me is that the shifter stick is vertical in 2nd or 4th gear position.
Shouldn´t it rather be upright in neutral position?
