    that will work. its a simple shifter. not intended for aggressive driving. the detentes in it are not very positive and is easy to bump it into another gear acidently. also the lever looks like it may stick the handle pretty high up into the car.

    One of my co workers bought it said the only thing he liked about it was that it looked like it was standard other than that,he didnt like how you gotta baby it to gears cause if you push it to hard itll go straight to drive instead of 2nd,id go with hurst...just my 2 cents

    It's a chrome stick with a rod at the end of it. If it were me I would spend a little more and get something a lot better (I had one once and HATED it).

    I went to the autoparts store today and saw that they "keep Hurst promatic 2" and "B&M Z-Gate" shifters in stock and on the shelf, they both are not that expensive, im leaning more towards the hurst that the B&M
