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.

Thumbs up

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!

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.

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

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.

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
