Question '06 OEM Shift *****?

Are there any vendors right now selling 2006 OEM shift ***** for 6MTs (graphite interior)? I haven't really found any shift ***** that have impressed me thus far, and I refuse to pay my local Infiniti stealership $197 for an OEM ****!? The more I think about it I really like our stock ones. Sooo if anybody is selling new stock shift ***** shoot me a PM or post up! Thanks!
BTW: newly installed Rogue Engineering short shifter....AMAZING!

Over the weekend I replaced the stock shifter with a Rogue Engineering short shifter, so I had to remove the OEM shift **** to do so. But it was ridiculously hard to get that thing off and then back on after the installation was done. The inside threading of the shift **** has a lot of threadlock in it, making it damn near impossible to screw it all the way back in. I ended up tearing some of the leather on the **** when I was using a wrench to screw it back on. (as per recommendation of the instructions and others on the forum) Even with a rag around it, the wrench teeth went right through. Soooo to make things easier I just wanna get a new OEM shift **** so it doesn't come with the threadlock on the inside. That way I can have no problem screwing it on all the way. Thus far the best price i've gotten was $115 shipped. Which isn't bad at all...but i'm trying to see who else can hook me up even better! =) Unless you guys have any other suggestions for nice leather finished shift ***** on the market?

Did you buy a new plastic pivot cup or did you reuse the old one?
