I have the B&M sort shift in my '02 Box S. I installed it myself, as it's pretty simple; you just need to be very accurate when R&R the shift cables. It was more of a pain removing the console than installing the shifter. As far as preference, the B&M is a big improvement over the stock throw. It is short, requires a bit more force and is a bit notchy, but that is my preference. When I drive 986s and 996s with the standard shifter, I can't believe how long and vague the throw feels.
