I think this looks sweet! Just really expensive @ $170
Holy cr@p, that's awesome!

Just read up on their website (google up Gaslock, and make sure to click the little english flag in the lower left if it shows up in German). Looks like it's some kind of motion / position sensor setup, sounds like the setup is pretty simple and straightforward.

Thanks dude, just make sure you don't drip glue and crap all over the place like the bozo who owned the car before me did...

Really nice! Where'd you get that? Is it painted or is that a skull in the middle of a clear shifter?

I'd like to know as well.

My guess is that it's a mustang shifter bezel. It looks a little more rounded than ours. I'm thinking he probably bought a mustang one and modified the actual dash of the car so that it would fit. I helped a friend do that to his F-Body and it actually ended up looking pretty good...

That shifter bezel is killer. I have the same shifter know and would love to add the bezel. However, I'm a little chicken when it comes to cutting my console. I wonder if anyone makes one specifically for the C5?

A picture of a guys car I met at a local car show. This is not my car so I can't give any information on where he got the shift ****, but I thought it was really unique and haven't seen one like it before.

Back in the early 80s when living in NJ, had some friends who hunted. They were making shift ***** out of deer hooves. Had one for my '73 Opel GT. Don't know how that would go over in Kalifornia these days, though.
