Today I un-installed my $60 ebay short shifter and installed my 987 short shifter (the shorter of the two 987 shifters).

The new shifter is definitely nicer. It shifts much smoother than the ebay shifter. It also has a lot less play to it. Even when my ebay shifter was in gear it still had about an inch of side to side play. The new shifter had less than half that much play when in gear.

Since the 987 short shifter is around $350 I can't say it's a better bang-for-the-buck upgrade than buying the ebay shifter. But if you've got $350 burning a hole in your pocket and you want the best possible shift feel... I think this is it.
