i know i was happy! the gears work the same way as before, also you have the p r n d and so on on your tach so you still know what your shifting into, plus i already know my car inside and out and dont have to look at it or look down when i shift to see where i am at lol

How'd you get the shifter so much shorter than stock? I'd be a big fan if my shifter was just 1-1.5 inches shorter.

Yes I understood that part, but in your pictures your actual rod-part looks to be much shorter than mine, even though we both have automatics. I just wanted to know whether the pictures are deceiving, or if you somehow shortened the actual height of the automatic shifter itself, maybe by cutting it in half or something along those lines.
