Yes, and it also comes with a boot adapter which holds it against the boot. I ordered mine last week and it should be here within the next couple days. Any tips on installing it? I know it's pretty straight forward.

the instructions that came with it were perfect and easy to understand, i followed them and was finished installing it in less than five minutes. it feels and looks great compared to stock.

Obviously I can't attest to the function or feel, but looks-wise I think I like the stock setup or the new Hurst part more. Still it's interesting.

It feels great looks even better and has a more retro look than the stock shifter and fits in better with the rest of the car. It's a lot more comfortable to shift with than stock and never gets too hot or cold.

I'm happy with it but if anyone's happy with stock, one less thing to spend $ on.
