Default best short stick for the buck?

Ive been searching for them, but have only found one so far and it was about 30 bones with no offset like the stock stick has. Any help?

I hear lots of great things about ws6store.com. They're cheap at $25 w/ free shipping, work great, easy install and when I ordered mine, it shipped the next morning.

another vote here for the ws6store short stick!

the stock stick is what makes the shifter feel like crap.

I cut an inch off of my UMI. The **** (2" MBA ) is a little low with the console in, but it only counts when it is out. It is short and notchy, opposed to a long throw. I like it. PICS coming.

I use the PRO 5.0 shifter along with Speed Incs, angled short stick. Definitely awesome.

If you go short stick, go angled!
