Default Anyone Tried This shifter?

I was searching around and found this Automatic Shifter, Pistol-Grip Quarter Stick, B&M shifter that says it will fit Chevy, 200-4R/700R4/4L60/4L60E/4L80E,
part number-3162030
Has anyone tired these on our cars ? Will it fit?

i have one in my project car. KICK A$$!!! those are hands down the best! when i bought the car, it was already in it, but the center of the shifter area was cut up to fit it. i haven't personally seen one in another f-body down in the console without cutting, but i have seen other shifters that most guys used an m6 console and put the shifter boot around it to clean it up.

Dave

Yeah i guess its mainly for looks.And probaly wouldnt get one any time soon. But it will trigger lock out N .unlike the stock one from D you can move it up to N without pressing the button. And has a reverse lock out. The stock shifter has a reverse lock out already? I think it does but not sure.

bull $hit!!! i've had the misfortune of going from D to R in one quick move. nothing bad happened thankfully. the car just died. took 2 tries for it to restart, but that was it. thank God. don't assume that your shifter will keep you out of trouble if you make a mistake, because it may not. my car had less than 20,000 miles on it when it happened, so it wasn't some worn out shifter or anything, just didn't prevent it from happening and that's all there was to it.
