Unfortunately I'm too lazy to get the photos off my phone as it takes AGES because I've only got infrared. But anyway, the shifter is 2 inches shorter than the stock one and it's magnificent! We got a nice little metal bar, lathed it down to the size that seals perfectly inside I think it's a red and black Autotechnica gearknob, and drilled one small hole into the shaft so that one of the grub nuts can be screwed in to hold it in place.
Very stoked . My car's a V6 VN manual, which has a reasonably short stock shifter but not short enough . That and I really wanted to get that gearknob in, so I figure - why not make a shifter to fit the gearknob?
All I can say is: SUCCESS! BAHAHA!
