Real screws would rock, but would be worthless. It's a lot of extra work for no gain. Would probably raise the price up quite a bit.</div>
Well, whatever the hell they are, I'm not interested unless the ring somhow looks like stock. It can be CNC'ed or use real allen bolts.


And stop flooding this post with those gay-ass neon rings!!! Take your rice somewhere else. gay.gif

Real screws are easy I have them on mine. All you do is line the holes up with the ones on the shifter surround and then stick the bolt though and use a nut to tighten it to the shifter surround. I have real bolts and I have a nut that tightens the ring to the surround to hold the shift boot in. The problem I had was that the new ring was to thick to fit in the spot and hold the boot in there so I had to modify the surround underneath and trim it up a little bit. I will get pics tonight form top so you can see what the real bolts look like and what it looks like underneath.

I'm in the middle of doing my entire console/dash area. This would be a big plus to this huge project. I'm posting my name again considering that people before and after me were added to the list, but my name is not listed...

Ehh, of course it's going to look somewhat like stock. If it didn't, it wouldn't fit you moron.

So you are saying it can be CnC'ed or use real allen bolts, but not both? How would you like us to get them made if we don't CnC them?

Hand carved?

LOL

As for the pics I posted, i just went to google image search and typed in...

shifter ring

Those came up. Eat a dick. owned.gif lmao.gif drillsergeant.gif smile.gif cool.gif

They WILL be CnC'ed, and the idea of having them go all the way through and hold your boot with the screws and some nuts is a very good one. I'll run that by Kikassboy, that should save us some trouble.

BTW, where did you get that ring mang?

Let's see. You can either:

1. CNC FAKE allen screws into the surround like the original.

or

2. NOT CNC fake screws, and use REAL ones instead.


It's one, or the other, not both!

Get it now?
