Default automatic pistol grip?

Anyone know where I can find 1? I found 1 on eBay, but its for 87-04 mustangs... Anyone know if it should work, or better yet where I can find 1 for my 02 ws6?

Thanks
Bruce

I just did a quick search on Amazon and found one for $47
Amazon.com: Hurst Shifter **** for 1953 - 2006 Chevy Corvette: Automotive Amazon.com: Hurst Shifter **** for 1953 - 2006 Chevy Corvette: Automotive

I just searched for "corvette pistol grip".

That one is silver, I think there is a black one around somewhere too.

Either way, its for a manual. You'll need an adapter to fit it on an auto. At that point, with the adapter, you can use any manual **** with the right threads.

You can get the adapter from WS6 Project and other places for $20-$25

I just found this Pistol Grip in other colors:

Just search on Google for "corvette pistol grip" or "firebird auto shift adapter" and you'll find more. That's how I found these.

My local Advance Auto has the same Hurst grip for $33, excluding the adapter of course. P/n 153 1000. You guys check yours and save some money and get it it immediately
