Just get one of the modified stock shifters and some shifter bushings. Its less expensive and works like a charm.

Saw this on that page also
Amazon.com: Ralco RZ 914130 Performance Short Throw Shifter Cadillac CTS-V 04-07: Automotive Amazon.com: Ralco RZ 914130 Performance Short Throw Shifter Cadillac CTS-V 04-07: Automotive

I had a B&M in my car and it was alright. With the way the design of the linkage is it will never have the great solid feel like direct mounted shifters. Id just get a modified one if i did it again.

And you can get them for $165. Pretty sure they are a uuc clone.

Yes, I modify them. You can either get on the wait list or send yours for modification.
