Default threaded c6 shift **** for a c5

I remember at some point seeing a modified c6 stock **** threaded to fit on a c5 handle. I spent awhile searching with no luck. anyone know where i could find this. Thanks

GS creations is the only one I know of, you can find them on the auction site.

They sell them here:

I had one for a while, but didn't find the threading tight enough. I ended up stripping the **** after hard shifting too much since I kept spinning the ****.

That works. I have the MGW shifter and already had a GS Creations **** so ordered the C5 version from MGW.

i actually had a type-o i mean i should get the c6 handle from mgw and then get a stock c6 **** but i think u realized that. how do you like that **** on the mgw. to me it seems like the curve would be more comfortable in 1st and 2nd gear more then a ball ****.

I really like it a lot. I had a custom Hurst **** very similar in shape to this that I had made years ago and the C6 **** replaced it. I like the C6 **** as much or more than the Hurst and that one was, by far, my favorite up 'til then.
