looking to have a short shifter, but ill be dagnabit to spend a hundred bucks for one....I think thats ridiculous for 2 rods and a few nuts. cant I just cut the shifter? is there anything wrong with taking a dremel to it and re-attaching the knob?
from experience i know i should ask this kind of thing before i go demolition on my baby This post has been edited by e30og: Oct 19, 2010 - 10:22 PM -------------------- same skidpad grip as a 2006 M3....stock. 'nuff said

dont cut it, like said it will not have the threads on it, buy the 7th gen short shifter, i have this as well as other members, it also comes with upgraded aluminium bushings that support the shifter and you will have a more solid throw, as for the the set screw shift knobs i hate them, hate hate hate them, mine came off when i was in traffic, so not a fan, i have the 7th gen short shifter with the trd knob, worth the money, the scion tc short shifter will work also \
