Auto. Shift *****
Those of you with A4's that have replaced your shift **** for a different look, please post pics. I am interested in doing so and only see a few options, but they never show pics of them installed. And if anyone has installed that part that lets you put on a standard ball type **** please post pics or leave input on the outcome of the install, I like the idea, but it just seems like the shifter would be riding high after that was installed.
Thanks for any input. My birthday is coming up and I need to get my mod ducks in a row.

Here's mine - it's an old pix but I still have this ****. Brushed Alum, I like it. Install took all of 30 seconds.
