i just have a quick question. Is it ok to mix and match short shifters and the bushings. I'm thinking it is but just need some other opnions. I just bought the Doc I short shifter and was wondering if i can use other cage and cable bushings instead of his?

i just installed it without any grease.
it took me like 2 hours.
jack up the car.. take off the wheel, inner fender, cai... ( ok i cleaned the throttle body too) to take off the original pin i had to use a plier. than the cable bushing witch facing backwards ( towards the firewall) was pain in the ___.
it was really hard just to pull down the cable from the bolt. or whatever is that. then it was pain in the ___ to put it back on it. but i realized if i ask my firend to move the shiftknob back and forth slowly and stop at one point i could put the cable on with the bushing on the bolt.
to install the e clips wasnt that hard with a plier.
about the shift feel.... well... i dont feel too much different.its definiatly not a WOW upgrade. its alright.
to be honest it feels like that something is not greased up. so its not that soft as before. but veeery little change compared to the old bushing.
maybe some of u guys had really bad bushing. idk, i got 05 tc

Most people notice the difference right away as night and day -- oem is soft and friendly and easily wiggled around -- with the bushings you will have a much tighter and firmer shift and more exact engagement via less slop.
