The first has a threaded stick for our polished, red, black or blue *****.
The second is designed to use the OEM **** or replacement.

Callaway shifter
While I would like the shorter throw of the Callaway, what I'm looking for is more positive gates. I find myself occasionally hitting the wrong gear when upshifting or downshifting quickly.
Does the Callaway help this problem?

If old fumble fingures here could install it, you can do yours. Only problem is that my cigarette lighter & driver's side seat heater dosen't work now.
I printed out the step by step inst, posted by Lager99 6-8 mos ago and took it out to the garage. 2 hrs plus I changed shift boots and E-Break boots. MOMO Boots & MOMO Shift ****.Had hands on the Calloway Shifter last year at Carisle and loved it. Buy it & do it. If you can't install take it to Ben - Ben can do anything
