Here’s the thing about C5 shifters, most of them do the same thing. You can move a pivot point to change the ratio and remove slop… that’s kinda it.

I like the Tick and TMod as they both replace the boxes and eliminate a ton of slop.

I've had my TMOD for several years. No complaints and would buy it again.

Another fan of the TMOD. Shores up all the slop and I’m certain of which gear I’m selecting. It’s one of those “should have come from the factory like this” type of improvements. I went with this option because I was not looking for a notchy short throw shifter experience. Nothing wrong with those but I found the TMOD to be the perfect solution for just everyday street driving.
