Default Pro 5.0 shifter

I've been looking around at shifters. I am leaning towards an MGW but I saw that they make a Pro 5.0 shifter for the c5... is anyone using one of these? If so how do you like it? I was doing a search and surprisingly didn't see anyone say anything about using one of these.

Just buy the MGW and be done with it, everyday there's some new shifter thread on here that's been beat to death for years and years. MGW or C6/CZ 99% top the list

Whatever you do make sure you take care of your box. The MGW with the lower box is great, but any other shifter, including the factory shifter, will be much better with an upgraded lower box.

I know a lot of folks love the MGW, but not everyone does.
