pro 5.0, hurst, b&m, and atleast 1 maybe 2 others. i know hawks third gen has the b&m, hurst and pro 5.0 all at pretty cheap prices. they have great customer service and fast shipping. i have a pro 5.0 and the umi short stick and would never go back. its a a bit noisy but it works flawlessly and dont really mind the noise at all

I would think you could use the same one the Mustangs use (non-Cobra)

Wait for somebody that has one to confirm however :P

The mustang tranny is not rotated like the Camaro's is. The shifters will not work. I have some links at home from when i was shopping around. I will post them when I get home unless someone beats me to it. I found my hurst shifter on ebay. It was discontinued at that time. Hurst did replace it with another design. I think they where trying to get a shifter that was competitive price wise with the Pro 5 shifter. The nice part about the old design is it is very easy to cut off a 1-1/2". All you need is a saw and a drill

Edit:
Search ebay "T-5 shifter Camaro"
Get the part numbers from then then google that part number or just search Jegs or summit.

Damn these are all expensive! My buddy got a civic short shifter for $40 so i thought it would be similar. Any idea if those DIY short shifters really work?

what he said. also get a umi short stick. you wont really find anything cheaper. you could go on ebay but still even then you have to really read the add bc there are knockoffs and there is always something that isnt exactly like the real thing. you wouldnt want to break a shifter either

I paid $130 for my new hurst off of ebay. Name brand used one would be better then a knock off.
