Default GTO shift **** installed pics

i wanted something diffrent ive never seen one of these in a f body but it feels great matches my red stiched shift boot and looks killer. i also painted in the numbers and shifter gates they were normally silver. im also going to paint the radio bezel trim the same silver to match i think it will look nice. it was hard to take pics because of the glare but here you go

Yeah! Push button ignition. How does that work anyway? You have to have your key turned to the on position and then press it? Are you able to still start the car with the keys?

When you say you used jb weld, you mean you just stick inside the **** and then put the handle in?
