Many people here had them or have had them at one point in time. They require an adapter to make sure they dont move all over the place but they work just fine.

In the summer they get hot as **** and burn your hand if the sun beats inside on the ball. Id rather just leave the stocker on.

I use the stock one as well.
If they are hot in the summer, I assume they are like ice in the winter?

There isn't 'another' adapter. That is the page for the adapter; they just don't show it. It's just a threaded sleeve with two set screws to hold it on. The pic on that page is just showing that there is a **** for a manual on an automatic.
