Check out ebay. 7th gen SS will work with our cars. Or you can go for the TRD quickshifter. I recommend the quickshifter. I know its a lot more than the ss kit from ebay, but well worth it. Well I don't have it yet, but I will soon.

When I ordered mine it came with the knob. It was like 180 total, but so worth it.

panda and hurley, where did u get ur shifters from? and are they thenewer versions? sry mike, i wouldnt kno if they do. but with me, i would rather spend more money once the right way, with knowing that the item is made for our vehicle then something is not and guesstimating with it.

Are there any noticeable differences between the Ebay 7th gen shortshifter and the authentic TRD 6th gen quickshifter?
