Default Installed new shift **** today!
Purchased a C5 auto shift **** adapter from Corvette Accessories Unlimited and then installed a new shift ****! I think it turned out pretty good, plus if I get bored with it I can change it out anytime!!

Looks awesome! That's one of the mod's I've considered for my A4. I hear the pin / key that holds the stock **** in place is a son of a gun to get out. How tough was it?

It was pretty tough. Put the shifter all the way back into 1st. That makes it easier to see and work on. You'll have to have something small to get the key out! Total I spent about 20 minutes doing this, so it wasn't that bad.
