Anyone w/ Prostick Shifter....

Was wondering if there is any way to modify the shifter or reverse lockout lever so you don't have to use two hands to shift into park/reverse. Unless im totally missing something (havent installed it in the car yet), to get the shifter into park or reverse, you have to be in drive, push forward on the reverse lockout lever w/ your left hand, then pull back on the trigger and slide the shifter forward. If i were to completely remove the lever the thing could easily slip into reverse then, correct? So has anybody done any modifications to their shifter to be able to shift w/ one hand?? Thanks. (If i knew it was gonna be like this I woulda ordered another shifter...)

Interesting bit i copied directly from B&M's website...

*Reverse lockout feature meets NHRA/IHRA requirements. It's all one-handed.

Lol, so if someone could explain to me how exactly it is supposed to be one-handed as claims, I would like to know.

Try putting it in neutral and then flipping the reverse lockout, should stay out of the way.
