Question Guys....I have a C5 automatic which has a push button **** and most of the ones here look to be for standard shifts. Where can I find a push button style that will be a nice upgrade from the stock shifter? I thought I could be tricky and find one that is a push button but have the head/face of a six speed standard...any thoughts?
Thanks again as usual.

There are a lot more six speed style ***** to choose from. Get an A4 shift **** adapter kit (Xtreme motorsports $29.95) and get whatever **** you want.

Here is the C6 ZO6 Shifter and ****. Both with a Ken King boot on.



[/QUOTE]

Will the C6 **** fit the C5 shifter? If not, how difficult to fit the C6 shifter to a C5? Where is best to get the C6 ****?

Not directly. They attach differently. I've seen some being modified on ebay and such. May be check with some of the venders here.
