Default Auto shift ****

I have done a search and can't find what I'm looking for. I saw someone with a shift **** in an f-body that was from a Buick Regal GS. I haven't found much information on this shift ****, but wanted to know if there was one available without the button for overdrive. Also if it uses the staple like ours or if it required some fab work. It looked a lot nicer than the rubbery leather one's we have, and if it's a staple would be an easy swap.

I haven' t seen the one you're looking for, but I guess you could used the OD button for something else like a linelock.

I've thought about that, but I'd prefer to not have to figure out what to do with the button really. I hate when I see something on the internet and can't find it again. If I find it again in the f-body I'll post up a pic of it. Here's the **** I'm talking about.

Its not tha good looking in my opinion, but I guess the boot will compensate for that.
