Default shortening auto shifter...help!!!

so, i got the proper die and cutting fluid/lube, but the auto shifter is hard as...its just hard. i dont think any die will cut a thread on the shifter.

i really want to shorten the stick, any other suggestions on how to do it so i can still thread myshifter on it? thanks!!!

no way to leave it short with thread unless u remove the shifter, and re-thread it...silicone it down and spin it around so the steel can rethread the plastic in the ****...i did it..look hott.

At least this isn't the guy who was like "where can I buy a short shifter.... for my auto"



I felt sorry for the guy, though... because I'm pretty sure he actually meant how do I shorten the stick
