Heres a couple crappy quick dirty chops of the black and blue pearl ***** on nemesis's picture (Hope ya don't mind, but the lighting matched the ebay shot pretty well! LOL)
No problem on borrowing the pic.


Yeah the spherical ***** look and work great. But what can I say, I guess I'm the only that likes the pistol grip! Lol I don't mind being different

I somehow kept looking over this... Any chances the person that made this would be willing to make a delrin version of the stock hurst and SLP ***** (I think these are the most comfortable for DD duty and occasional track) , maybe with a 4th gen hawk instead of the H or SLP? That looks like it has a nice feel to it!

Yeah guys, Rob at Product Innovations can do any custom shifter you want. He worked with me on the phone on a few occasions to get my "SS" ball made! Give him a ring and tell him Matt with the SS Shifter sent you, he'll give you the rock-star treatment!

Recoil, you da man! I was about a day or so away from pulling the trigger on the pearl ****. If I can get what I'm after, AND not have to worry about the leather tearing again, big bonus points! I'm gonna give them a call soon as I get some free time this week.. maybe even go with that tappered ball they offer and just have a hawk engraved... depends on the cost of having the shape of the stock one reproduced

More importantly if you look at my original post, trying to locate a dealer for the stock **** at a reasonable price was priority #1

Thanks...it took some time to do, and this is iteration number 4, but I got it just the way I want it this time around. Most don't even know it is there since I keep the main unit up on the headliner around where the driver's side visor is - the remote display keeps the main display from showing anything, so you certainly can't tell if you are following behind me.
