Default 410 / 411 floor shifter

Please can somebody give me details of floor shifter detents of an unmolested 410 / 411?

A previous keeper had a go at the shifter on mine and got rid of some of the detents to make shifting between gears easier for them. I'm not very happy with this and would like to restore the original setup.

Currently my shifter locks in Park. If I press the button the lever will move to reverse and then freely move to Neutral without pressing the button. Pressing the button again allows movement to Drive. 2 can then be selected freely. Pressing the button then selects 1.

Going the other way starting in 1 the lever is free to move all the way to Drive, then needs to be pressed in turn for Neutral, reverse and Park.

My recollection is that when I first had the car I had to press the button to move from Drive to 2 - or did I make that up?
