Default Where to buy MBA shift *****???

I know WS6 store sells a limited quantity of them, but they don't have what I'm looking for. I really want a silver MBA ****, with tail, that either has the Pontiac emblem or WS6 engraved in it. Can anyone direct me to who sells them, or maybe someone has one they'd be willing to part with.

Good luck finding one. MBA went out of business a while back. So the places that sold them are only going to have a limited stock left. You might could try looking in the parts classifieds for anything that may pop up.

Yeah, I googled it yesterday and couldn't find much. What would be a good alternative shift ****. I had the factory Hurst leather **** and not I have a T-grip Hurst **** that I don't particularly like. I want to go back to a "ball" type shift ****. I like the GTO and Cobra shift *****, but they are hard to find and cost a pretty penny. Any suggestions?

Ok, just found an 03-04 Cobra shift **** for a real good price. I know it doensn't fit and you either have to re-thread the **** or shift shaft, but will an 03-04 cobra shift shaft bolt on to my stock Hurst shifter?
