How does this looks like ?
It's just a prototype, but I can tell you that it will fit really nice, especially with the short shifter underneath !

It looks great. That must be for the 5-speed gearbox. Doesn't the S have a 6th gear?

The part looks nice, but not a fan of the bare stick look.

I just removed the knob so you can see better, you should be able to use any shift knob after

I meant the bare shaft. I prefer a boot...just my personal preference.

This looks really nice. Would you be able to prototype one for a 6 speed? I would be very interested if this works well.

Ben - I'm new to 986forum (but have had my boxster for about 4.5 years) - are you still doing another run of the short shifters? or am I too late?

Hi !
For now I'm doing one for the 5 speed, it's easier and easier for me since I have a 5 speed.
Once I'm done I'll try for the 6 speed
Redbox, I would like to, but I even I count you on, I have too few people to start a new round :/
I'm too short on money to bet and start a round of ten shifter without having most of them pre-sold :/
I'm sorry.
Ben.

When ready let me know. I would be willing to be a guinea pig if needed

Yep, more than twice the price !
Their "yoke" looks really good! But I found that most of the play was not comming from that part.
I have mine for more than a year now, still strong !
Just check the tightness from time to time
Thanks for your feedback!
Ben.
