Whilst you have the shifter out it is worth adding the metal roller bearing bushes and checking the play in the **************** nylon block and shimming that were needed. Gives a tighter more precis feel.

I have a standard OEM 987CS shifter with very low miles as I replace it with a short throw shifter, if somebody needs one PLMK and I can take a pic or two.

Does $100 shipped seems reasonable?

Burg, you may be right as it will not be such a small box after all

That is a good deal, I just sold one for $125 (I had priced for quick sale) and then I saw one go for $175 on RL.
