Default Momo Shift *****

Anyone have a picture of a C4 with a Momo **** installed? I was thinking of maybe a yellow/black or yellow/aluminum. Or do you think it would look like sh**?

I installed one on my new Hurst shifter. It sits about an inch higher than the stock ****, if you install a Momo on a stock shifter it is going to be a very tall shifter. I can't imagine how long the shifter throw will be with a Momo on a stock shifter, but it's going to be LOOOOONG.

:eek: I'm changing radio stations when I shift as it is. Does the **** **** screw on and use the 'axe-handle wedge' or does it use a setscrew so you don't have to worry about bunging up the threads when you cut it?

It uses set screws. I'm thinking about purchasing a second Hurst and having it machined so the Momo can sit lower like the stock ****. I really like the feel of my F-16, the red matches my interior :cool:

So you just get in there with the angle-grinder and do yo' thang, huh?
Does the reverse lockout stay where it is, or did you pitch that?

Why not have your stock leather **** re-upholstered in the color of your choice? That's what I did.

Where would someone get that done, an upholstery shop? :confused:

How about yellow black?
Also, on a stock shifter it really is like rowing a boat...
