So, my new shift **** came in today from the guys at SickSpeed.

I didn't see any of their stock ***** that I liked, so after some emails back and forth, I sent them a hat pin of a the classic Z/28 logo to embed in one.

This is how it turned out.

Black pearl base **** with the embedded pin:



I had to chop the shaft down an inch or so. With the auto-adapter it stuck up WAY too high.



This one shows off the pearl a bit better. Taking pics in the shop with the flash really doesn't do it justice. You can just see the DPIC gauge in the background on t his one too.



I need to do a bit of clean up and paint touch up on that console again. Amazing what you notice when you start taking pictures in there.

 

I like the Black Pearl... Very Nice.

 

I like it! Do you push down to simulate a button press?

 

Yep, just push down on the **** for the shift release.

It took a minute to free that plastic shaft up after I cut down the outer metal shaft, as I used tube cutters to do it, which compressed the steel a bit onto the plastic.

works good now though.

 

got a side picture so we can see how long it is. wish you woulda taken some pics of the install.

 

Looks really great! The hat pin is a very nice touch.

 

I can do that if you'd like. duplicating the process wouldn't take long at all.

I will take some "install" pics and a side view pic after supper...

If I put the top down I can get a LOT more light in there for better pics too..
