I will !

The problem is that I can't invest as much as the two first times now, so I will need to find at least 8 persons before starting, and that's hard.

Ben.

Ben - count me in if you do decide to do another round. I've been dragging my feet replacing my shifter, but there is a lot of slop in it now and I want to change. I really liked everything I read about your shifter.

I'm keeping an eye out for the next round!

Ben006 02-02-2016 05:46 AM

Cool, that's 2 !

I will definitely start a new round if I get enough interest :)

Ben.

Count me in for sure, too.
I also have some 986 friends on Facebook that I'll check with.

As mentioned earlier in the thread, I'm interested. Do you need the PayPal now or when we have our 6+?

Ben006 02-02-2016 08:28 AM

I just saw that you were the only one that gave me all you informations last time :)

So I add you in for this one ?

I will take the payment only when I have everyone's confimation ;)

I've just posted a thread on the French boxster forum to try to get more people faster!

To motivate you, I've ordered 50 ball bearings, enough for 12 shifters ;)

A PM has been sent

Fintro11 02-02-2016 05:17 PM

once you have this bad boy installed you will never be able to drive a car without a short shifter and not complain !

redbox986 02-03-2016 02:57 AM

Sent my info to Ben yesterday. Sounds like we are getting close!

01BOXYS 02-03-2016 07:21 AM

Hey Ben,

Any more progress on the gear shift gate you were starting to look into last year? I still think this would look really nice in our cars.

rbet 02-03-2016 08:09 AM

Hey Ben,

I'm definitely in for this round, would you like me to resend my info or do you still have my last pm?

01BOXYS:
I'm still working on it, it's hard to get the shape of the center console right. Also, the flat lever makes the grid looks weird, so I ditch this design and went for a small square hole instead, which I think will still look good :)

I'll try to post pictures after!


rbet, I'll need your info again please, I can't find them anymore.

Thank you.
We are currently 7! It's going well!

Ben

particlewave 02-03-2016 10:35 AM

I'd like 2 in anticipation of my 996 purchase!
I haven't heard back from anyone else yet, but I will let you know if I do. ;)

Smallblock454 02-03-2016 12:05 PM

Hi Ben006,

found these on eBay Germany. Looks pretty much like the short shifter you're selling. Could you please tell me what's the difference between yours and the ones on ebay?

Thanks & regards from Germany
