What's more or less required to improve sloppy shifting into second gear? It wants to go into reverse unless I'm very careful. The car has about 45K miles on it. Does the transmission have to removed? Thanks.

It's not really a "lock out plate" It's more a spring loaded guide plate. If your touch is soft on the shifter, it will guide the lever away from the first/reverse plane and into second gear. If you tend to be ham fisted, it's not gonna provide the level of prevention you are looking for. BTW, if you remove the shifter assembly, mark the coupling as best you can (fore and aft, right to left) to ease the frustration of adjusting it.
