I just want a cool shift ****. They can be replaced correct?

Ideally- an old Hurst Tbar...

That's nice, but as mentioned, heat can be an issue. Where I live, it gets really hot in the Summer. I have an all aluminum one like that and at times it will get too hot to even touch. I just switched it out for the stock one over the summer.

Remember from the other threads though...this one will absolutely fry your hand when it's in the sun. Though it is really nice looking.

Looks nice...but I like the new one better...

Someone mentioned this on IBOC and i was ROTFLMAO at...
"Picture the indiana jones and Raiders of the Lost ark...when Toht picks up the medallion in Marians bar... and he gets the imprint on his hand...
this would be 1-2-3-4-5-R
"

That's the good thing about it. You got something to show for your effort. No pain, no gain. This is man's car, guys. Anyone that can't take a little heat should be driving a Mustang.

Pardon?
A man's car? I am NO man :angry: , but I can handle it like a dream. There will be no boring "girl car" SUVS and Vans in my future..Had enough of the dinged for sports car insurance but its a point a to b car..

Who cares if the shift **** gets to be 1,000 degrees as long as it looks good.

I have an aluminum **** and you tend to learn to deal with the heat...I do like this one shown above better but a shift **** is an easy replacement so no big deal there.

That shifter **** looks great - in hot weather I guess you could just throw a hat over it or something..

I don't agree. I think the Hurst T-handles look crappy. It looks added on. The pic of the current leather/alum look modern and comfy.

You are killing me- but if given the choice- I would take the pic I stuck up this morning- chrome ball. Please do not give me a leather golf club.

Tbar probably wouldnt work on these teeny little shifters anyhow.
