Nice, but too expensive for what it is.
I'm still looking for some light quality uni joints to make my own.

Short shifter is much better value for the money in my opinion, much easier to install too as it doesn't need part of the floor cut out.

Really, what are they thinking trying to get $600 for a couple of brackets and universal joints?
:?

Would $250 be a more appropriate price?

the only really tricky bit is that one of the U/J's has a left hand thread in it. apart from that it is all standard stuff, nicely made mind you.

willy, if you're still tring to sell yours just slap it up on ebay already and see what people will pay. If you're prepared to post internationally you could get more than what you've been asking.
:D
