Has any one ordered the short shifters off of ebay, I know that the one style is total B/s but this one actually looks kind of legit, But it's ebay and i know how most of you are about ebay lol.

Looks good, should work, you get what you pay for. Consider getting some of REDZMAN's custom shifter boots to go with it. I'm running a similar one, but it's actually a B&M. That is either a B&M knockoff or a Megan knockoff. Not bad for the price.

I've had experiance with that exact one back in the day when I wasn't thinking clearly. Yes it does in fact work unlike those other ones that don't even fit out tibs (except 01). BUT, it sucks when compared to anything else. It's a MUCH better idea to save up for a brand name one. I have a B&M and I like it alot. ARK is supposedly the best one but I've never experienced it myself. You can find name brand ones used on ebay or on here alot too. In fact java is selling or just sold a b&m. So buy it if you want but i highly suggest NOT.

One of the major mistakes is not tightning the bolt that runs from front to rear of the car down. That bolt is supposed to be pretty tight. Make sure you do that when you swap them or you'll get alot of extra play. I thought my B&M wasn't made right until I wrenched down that bolt and nut.
