Is it close enough to the right size you could epoxy it onto a stock handle? I found a new one for $187 but dont want to spend that and then not be able to use it on my chromed factory Hurst stick!

I have one in my car, you still need the key to start it. Half way, then hit the button.. I can also start the car with the key without hitting the button. It's more of that cool factor but besides that it's pointless.

Looks great. My only input would be to do something about the stock shift pattern. Have a something made to cover it up or something.

I think it looks tacky seeing the 6spd pattern on the **** and in front of it.
