Automatic Shift ****

Alright, I cant find any worthwhile. I've searched and seen only a few that looked like they belonged in a car with a big aluminum wing and underbody lights. So you guys do me a favor and post some pice of your ****.

And where you got them would be nice....


Thanks,
Max

If you want a tasteful looking ****, look at stock ***** from other GM vehicles. I never found too much in the aftermarket that was worth a damn.

That was kinda my opinion, I was just hoping somthing was being produced for us auto guys out here. I mean, would much rather have a manual, but ya have to be pround of what you own.

Like Jim85IROC stated most of the ***** from early 80's to current GM vehicles will interchange with our stock shifters (except the round ball **** on 82-86 Camaro's) and having worked for salvage yards for the last 2 years, I have tried several *****. I finally ended up with theis leather one out of an 05 Impala in my Formula.

I don't know exactly what years. But My friends 2002 Grand Prix has the same ****. I'd guess from the early to mid 90's on. They should be really common. I got mine off of Ebay for around $20. They are the staple type retainer and interchange onto any 87 and later third gen.

Hey guys I have a aftermarket shift **** in my car and it don't look bad or "*****". It is brushed aluminum and preferated leather. I might be able to get pics later today when it warms up some. Oh and the shift **** is for a automatic car.

both the camaro and firebird t-handle shifters are the same from my understanding b/c alot of camaro guys get the t-handles and use them. personally i dont like the t-handle but the grand prix *** should work on both camaro and firebird unless you have that ball shifter i think that is mounted different.
