Default Shifter & Shifter Base Bushings?

Did a search and most threads are for the tC. Who all has upgraded their shifter and shifter base bushings? If you have what brand did you go with and how do you like them after the install?

I have the Corsport bushings. Improved the feel of my stock shifter. Base bushings helped tremendously with the problem of getting into second.... Alot easier to engage and find (not overshooting the gate when downshifting). Same with reverse, much easier to find. Cable bushings helped firm up the throws....when you engage a gear you don't overshoot the limit cuz of the rubber, its like hitting a wall. The shifter just stops. Was worth the money to me.

the shifter cabling bushings on the tranny is very most worth it you can feel the difference soon as you start shifting thru the gears after you installed 'em and on your test drive...

What brand did you go with? Did you ever replace the base bushings?
