Got my sts today and threw it right in. Took like 15 min. What a difference! the old shifter felt like a stick in a bowl of rocks compared to the ark. i just have to get used to how short the throw is now. Btw the diy on the install was a great help smile.gif . I have to say there is no excuse for anyone not to get one of these , easy to install and bar none probably the best mod i have done yet.
