I"ve narrowed my choice for changing my shifter to the two Porsche 987 kits.

the "standard" 9X7 shifter: 997-424-010-00
or
the short shift 9X7 shifter: 997-424-983-00

i haven't priced BOTH. are they the same cost?
do they both "drop in" in terms of installation? i assume from the pictures posted above by geoff and blue2000 that they both pretty much just drop in.

apparently, no one here has tried both.

for those who "understand" how these both operate - does it appear that the Porsche SSK (997-424-983-00) will be "notchy" like hte B&M and toher aftermarket shifters out there?

the big benefit to the 9X7 standard shifter is that it still feels smooth and NOT notchy - but shortens the throws somewhat.

if costs are the same, and FEEL is the same, why not go with the 983 series part and get teh good feel AND a shrter throw??? unless you don't get both with this setup and it actually will be stiff/notchy???
