Pro 5.0 is a good shifter and just couldn't see spending the money for an upgrade. Going to put the money towards window tinting instead.

I'm starting to think the same thing. What I have now is fine (yes...just fine ), and so I'm thinking that the $275 could be better used on something else.

Maybe Ned will let me see what his is like , causing me to end up purchasing one in a few months.

Maybe, but you would have to bring the Saleen shift ****.

I didn't get stops. The OE shifter does not have them but the transmission has internal stops. It comes down to personal preference and how hard you think you are on your shifter.

The sales staff told me that George is not recommending the stops. Not sure why or if that was a misquote. So, that was good enough for me to opt out of the stops.

George I watched the video. That makes it pretty much "Idiot Proof." ( Although I'm sure you will eventually get a complaint from someone that tries to adjust the linkage past the cautioned 12 turns...lol)

You didn't leave much for us in the GP to do but install it and rave!

Just watched the video!
It said installation complete, I ran out to the car, and only to find the stock shifter still in
Made my g/f watch the video since she will be my extra set of hands.

Did get tracking # today!
