I made a custom shift cover/boot to go with the 7gc short shifter I put in. I like seeing the shifter so I tried to cover as little of it as possible. I like it so far, tell me what you guys think.

Is it an actual 7th gen quick shifter? or is it the stock 7th gen shifter? [right][snapback]258408[/snapback][/right] Not much work was required to get the 7gc short shifter in. It took longer for me because I took the stock amp out while i did it. Just follow the how to Coomer posted up for installing the TRD short shifter to get the assembly out and then after you get it out, follow the how to on how to swap the shifter out with the new one, and put it all back together. The only other thing you would have to do is cut a piece of the shifter assembly. I suggest you do this before you put the assembly back in, otherwise you'll have to take it back out to cut it, or be too lazy to take it out like me and saw it off while its in there. You need to cut this because that piece of plastic is pushing up on the centered shift cable and makes the shifting stiff. I took one of the pics from Coomer's how to article and circled the piece in red. Also you'll want to take out the stock rubber spacers that's on the assembly as well because the new short shifter should come with spacers. After you put everything back in and hook it all back up, you should notice a much shorter shift. And yes, it is a short shifter made for the 7gc, not the stock 7gc shifter. I ordered it from this ebay store: http://stores.ebay.com/PowerImport_W0QQssPageNameZl2QQtZkm
