Like Stazi said, you can't do the gated shifter, I tried. Though the reason seemed more to me like the location of the plate that would be needed on the console, i.e. down low where the bottom of the boot and the plastic trim ring are. The slots you'd need for 1,3,and 5 on a gated pattern actually overlap due to the width of the shifter itself. I have a stainless steel plate being made right now (if the s.o.b. ever cuts it out..long story) with an oblong hole in it (instead of gated) that I plan to use with just a smalll portion of boot sticking above the hole. I have the B&M as well, so maybe this wouldn't work well with the stock shifter.
