First off, you def need a hub adapter. I have the MoMo one. Quick release is optional - I opted not to get one since I wont be removing my steering wheel all the time.

I dont remember how much it was - I got it through www.optionsauto.com since my boyfriend has a wholesale account through them. Options generally has good pricing on most things, though. Highly recommend them.

No wobbles, no play. Very sturdy and cosmetically appealing.

You can kinda see it here:

We relocated it down to the fuse box area - you can see it in the pic. When I'm driving I can click it when I need to and when I'm at shows, I just push it up inside to hide it away.

Kinda ghetto - but I didnt wanna lose my cruise all together. LoL

It was super easy for me since I already had the entire dash out of the car at the time. LoL. Probably not that easy unless you remove the dash first.

I do have one - its the B&M Short Throw.

Doesnt really reduce the height - but it does reduce the throw.
