Ball bearing short shifter !

[Ben006]

Plenty of people have fitted it to 987/997 yes

The 9X7 shifter is a bit shorter than the 9X6 one, but still cushioned, and when it's worn, you have no other choice than to replace it.

If the one you have is brand new, you can give it a try, then fit one of mine later if you want something more precise !

Thanks for the reply. I already have the 997 unit installed in the car (and have sold my original one). Not unhappy with the 997 shifter in any way, just saw yours and was interested if it was worth finding a 9x6 shifter to modify and having to take apart the center console again. How much shorter is the throw compared to 997?
