An anti-theft apparatus of a shift lever for a vehicle, comprising:
- a shift lever case having:
- a shift lever which is connected with a shift cable;
- and
- a mounting portion fixing a socket of the shift cable;
- and
- a mounting bracket which is detachably connected to the mounting portion to cover an inner part of the mounting portion when the mounting bracket is mounted to the mounting portion,
- wherein the mounting bracket includes:
- a first end portion having a penetration hole through which the shift cable passes when the mounting bracket is mounted to the mounting portion;
- a second end portion having an insert groove configured to accommodate a body portion of the socket when the mounting bracket is mounted to the mounting portion;
- and
- fixing pins extending from an inner upper surface of the mounting bracket straight downwards around the shift cable such that the shift cable extends between the fixing pins limiting a lateral movement of the shift cable, and
- wherein the body portion of the socket further includes a support portion extended inward from an end of the socket, and the support portion is partially disposed in the insert groove of the mounting bracket, thereby preventing the socket from being released from the mounting bracket without detaching the mounting bracket from the mounting portion of the shift lever case.
