Default MGW Shifter
Just got my MGW Shifter in the mail. From the packaging to the shifter this thing screams Quality!
I can't wait to put it in the car.

Well just installed the shifter, seems nice and tight. Much smoother then stock that's for sure. Wasn't able to go for a ride yet it started to rain here. Lost a 10mm socket in the tunnel....lol I searched for an hour couldn't find it. Hopefully it rolls out the back when I stomp on it. Installation was a breeze the online video is on point.

i know it's kind of a pain, but if you pull the shifter box you can stick your hand down there and pull out the socket. It happened to me, lol!

I had the shifter box out, even tried with a magnet. Last night I took it out for a ride, I got on it leaving my house and heard it roll out! Once I came back from the ride I found the socket in the street!.....LOL

Glad it worked out or the rattle of that socket would have driven you crazy.
