Default Good low shift ****?

The **** on my car is some generic **** that actually heightens the shifter. I plan to get a better shifter in the future but as right now I want something that will lower stock height, preferably spherical because I'm a "top" shifter and maybe weighted. Thanks.

I cannot recommend this very low-sitting **** or this seller enough.

I used a Hurst with the correct shift pattern engraved. I think they are now about $40.

I did that same mod on my C5 and the C6 Z06 shifter I replaced it with. It worked great. As far as a new shift ****, there is a site called SpeedDawg. They make about a hundred or so different shift *****, reasonably priced and with all different mounting types.
