Ok, guys
Step 1b.
To get the short shifter look, in Step 2 slide the blue extender up and off. There will be a short square metal shaft. Then proceed to Step 2 but with out the Blue extender.

Yea, I was hoping it would work also. After taking apart the **** assembly it doesn't seem like it would be too difficult to fabricate a custom ****. I may get to work on one after I do my glass work in the trunk this week.

i personally think the mom o **** for teh automatic isnt very good looking... but ive seen worse... and get a black leather boot...
(i can take more pics if you want them...)
I got this **** for Christmas and will install it shortly. I just need to know where you guys are getting the boots. I would really like a leather one with possibly gray stitching to somewhat match the interior of the Z. Where can I get one??
