There is a BUTTLOAD of these all over egay. I know that is where he saw these. I like the top one personally. The 350hp would be a lie on my car though.

I love the Z28 one, but since its going on the engine, it should be titled "ls1", I just like the black background, I wonder if they make "ls1" with the black background

I like that one b/c it actually looks like it could be a OEM piece. I also like the LS1 350 HP one

mine did the same thing at first, I just applied a little more pressure and it locked. Now it locks just fine without having to put extra pressure.
