I know you just quickly mocked this up, but it seems like it'd be easier to operate flipped 180 degrees so the handle is facing forward. I could be wrong.
Agreed.. I've seen it done before like that but I have a Nismo SS and its adjusted to its lowest setting, I think I'll start scraping the console panel if I mount it that way. The side ways thing would work for the Lemon and Pineapple style grenades but not the frag which is going to be the one I put more time and effort into. I'm planning on opening the bottom of the grenade and inserting a Delrin or urethane sleeve that goes all the way to the primer then tap it 1/2 way through the sleeve so it'll eliminate the need to run a garnish piece. I've found that the most comfortable way to shift is wrapping my 4 fingers around the grenade body and resting my thumb on the lever... kinda like a thumbs up with a grenade in your hand lol. I really like the input... keep it up guys.
I've been driving with it one since yesterday afternoon with no shifting problems at all...Hell I get better positive shifts than my TK. I'm setting up my Hero in the car to capture regular shifts and a couple power shifts so stay tuned .
So far its comfortable... I'll post shifting vids on Monday
Hey Flo-rida!
It's funny that I happened to stumble on a thread about this and it ended up being yours! I've had a couple grenades laying around the house and I was thinking about it the past week about how they could fit on where the shift **** is because of the hole in the base, I have the exact same make and model grenade as your one in the picture; could you please pm me how to drill etc.. basically do everything to get the grenade on as a shift **** please! I'm also not sure if I want it to be facing handle towards me like yours, or handle towards the console?
