Do yourself a favor and spend the money on a quality shifter. If a shifter is 32 bucks, theres a reason for it. The cheap ones will most likely leave you stranded.

i paid around 170 for my B&M shifter. I think there is a reason it is more expensive than the others: it is a better piece!

I would never risk putting in a $30 shifter in my car, the B&M is definitely worth the money.

I paid like $140 for a Steeda shifter ($105) and knob ($35).

I still have not received the knob but I have an Optimized (True) Short Throw Shifter from the reference of the driver.

Not just a shifter cut shorter and rethreaded with a polished reverse lever.

But if you have the tools, cut and thread is cheaper. You will save $32 to $170 and you will not have to worry about the ball and pin joint breaking off the bottom of your factory shifter.

Not that I have had any problems with my Steeda.
