I have the B&M shifter and like it. I don't think you will find any that are easier to install because they all require removal of the stock shifter and installation of the new. Some require more work such as cutting away part of the plastic base plate. It really isn't difficult at all. The provided instructions explain it step by step with pictures.

I had the B&M and it sucked ass compared to the Rside Advanced short shifter.

Do a search here to learn more about them.

They are all just the same difficulty to install. Stay away from the OBX and Fidanza ones, they are crap and don't work on our cars in that order.

it looks like they just cut the stock shifter stick off then welded a new rod on.
no its not bad its just not a true ss. where it would actually shorten the shift.
when u put a ss on u dont use the stock one anymore anyway so its not bad to alter it just shortens the stick.

i might be wrong about it being stock but it looks identical to stock.
