H.o.S Short Shifter (Pics)

Well I just installed the House of Scion Short Throw Kit the other day, I unfortunately didn't get any pics on how I did it because I was on a time frame and needed to get it done quick...But here's what it looks like (I also got the Sparco Fast-R shift **** to go along with it) Only 150$ for the whole set up, and 2 hours of my time.

I'll try and get a "Before" picture so you can figure out what it used to look like, but you guys with a tC should know what it looks like stock, and about how tall it was.

It's really nice, it's kinda stiff because I couldn't find any more grease to grease it all up so I had to get as much as I could off of the assembly from before...It's supposed to be 35% shorter than stock...And I can definitly tell, 3rd Feels like 1st lol...It's all so close. I love it though

Yeah it is, it's like 85$ Shipped so it's definitly a reasonable price, and it has one of the shorter throw %'s that I was reading up on so it's something I recommend as well

I also just installed my HOS short shifter last week and it's good to see that my shifter wasn't the only one that was stiff after installation. It's loosened up a little and almost goes back to center position on it's own now. A great shifter for the price! Can't argue that one.

The bummer is that I stripped my OBX shift **** frm the dealership putting it back on after the install and I'm back to the stock **** for the time being.
