Someone needs to make a nice aftermarket shifter for our 5AT's, the momo is just not nice. I would defn be down if there was a M45 or GTR style shift **** for our cars.

That has no push button on it though, so you could throw the car into R if your not careful.

Also you would not need to have your foot on the brake to put it in D, its more for a car with the gates on the shifter.

Tim' I was at work and anxious'

So driving home, I was stuck in traffic, stuck in traffic i took the thing apart. After studying the **** I came to the conclusion that the white inner workings is what needs the modification.. When I got home I drilled it out as much as I can and it still wont drop.. I'm going to disect the **** to see if i can modify it even more in order to make it drop a bit. I'll keep ya posted folks

I had to increase the 2 solts down the front and back side of the shifter, then cut the outer lever to the desired length.



Once the outside was short I worked on the inside. You can pull the white top off the metal pole.





For the inner pole that controls the shifting I cut it down to length.




After the shaft was close I worked on the white piece. I cut the bottom clip off and then shortened the top section. Took a lot of fitting to get both the center pole and the white piece to the proper lengths for perfect function. Used some 2 part epoxy for plastics to reconnect the clip and the top of the white piece.





Still need to go get some lube for the shaft and the white tip.


Jason,
Don't bother cutting open a ****, they will not be able to be modified to sit lower. Heres a couple of pics of my **** (that doesn't sound right, LOL)




If you want to take a look inside one just stick a small flat head into the top side of the button, it pops right out.
