Default Pistol-grip shifter

What's up guys,

Does anyone know where I can get a nice polished aluminum "Hurst" pistol-grip shifter?

I've looked online, and all I can find is one black Hurst pg and one polished no-name pg.

I'm looking for both polished and the Hurst name in it.

Thanks

ARe you talking about the T bar Hurst shifter? The one that is aluminum and says HURST on top? If so, try Kragen/AutoZone. I see them there all the time. Don't know if they'll thread on or not, they're usually for old school cars.
Good luck!

I don't know, but I would love to have a B&M Megashifter in my SS.

You looking for the entire shifter for an A4 like this?

Or are you looking for just the shifter ****, well what normally would be the ****, but is instead a "pistol grip" for an M6... You probably won't find one if your are. And if your looking for the entire shifter assembly, there isn't one that is designed for our cars. I've seen some people fit them in there for full out drag cars, and even some street cars. You have to either deal with a fabricated center console, or a completely custom piece I believe.

If your looking for just the T-Handle

You can em' at Jegs, or autozone or the like, as Jon stated above.

Nope. just use an m6 console and it'll look factory

I'm just looking for the pistol grip ****, that's it.

Believe it or not, I've got that same T-handle in my car right now! I just thought it would be sweet if there was a pistol-grip in that same style (since the T-handle isn't the most comfortable in the world (sarcasm).)

BTW, those Hurst T-handles don't exactly fit onto the M6 shaft. After accidentally stripping two of them, I resorted to LOTS of red loctite....hehe. It's been fine for about a year now.

I have what you are looking for. I got mine from JEGS. It is the pistol grip and says HURST on it. Not cheap tho.
