I haven't been able to find many for automatics. Tons of options for manuals and it seems everyone with a manual has a custom shift ****. All of us autos are stuck with the 20 year old plastic shift ****.

Get a auto to manual adapter and you can install any manual **** you like.

Almost all of the pics above have the adapter - including mine.

Midamerica - at $50. It is about $10 cheaper if you shop around. I got mine from CAU, but I can't find the link right now.
