You'll not get any other answers other than MGW. Just do it.

My vote is also for MGW. I installed one a month ago and couldn't be happier. It's well worth the price and then some. The build quality is way better than the GM shifter and it's way more "precise"

Actually, it's not easier. Laws of Physics and all that
The shorter the throw the more effort required. At first you might think, "wtf?" but (a) your muscles need to adjust and (b) the shifter needs to break in a bit. Soon enough both will happen and you'll love it.
Lots of folks describe it as "rifle bolt" action. Not too far off, I think.
You need to decide which **** setup you want, too.

Do you really need another opinion recommending MGW? If so, you have it. Really a nice shifter.
