Re: B&M Shifter question
the whole point of the megashifter is that it's a ratchet shifter. It'll allow you to shift while driving an automatic and not **** ur tranny lol. it stops after each shift so u dont go to far and say drop it into wrong spot and go *ka-boom*

Re: B&M Shifter question
Junkyard is going to be your best bet. I'm guessing you have the ball style shift ****, and the stick has broken the top of it off, leaving the ball sitting on the bottom of the stick on the shift plate. Pretty common.

My stock handle is the round ball version, when i took it apart the other day it was the shifter shaft with a piece of plastic in the middle, this plastic has to be pushed down before it can be shifted into a different gear.

Re: B&M Shifter question
Thanks everyone for all the replys. i decided to make my own handle out of wood and paint it.
I started a thread in case anyone was interested.

Re: B&M Shifter question
Got to love that thin little strip of plastic, its amazing they made it so ridiculously frail, broke mine pulling apart my interior just by bumping into it...I mean there is just so little material there, especially where it has that little hole...

Re: B&M Shifter question
yeah, either metal and or without that little hole in the middle, but oh well, my megashifter is almost done swapping in, so for me its not that bad since I planned on getting one at some pt anyways, but it would suck if I wanted to keep the car original, or didn't want a megashifter.
