Default Which Short Stick?

This will be a chrismas gift from my mother, I want a short stick for my 6speed. Im trying to decide between Lou's Short Stick or the Umi short stick. What are your opinions on these? I have the factory Hurst if that helps. Also if you could post pictures of how short it is once installed. Thanks!

Just got the UMI short stick, and it is great, especially for the price. There's a GP going on for $19.99 plus shipping on here. Install took like 10 minutes.

Never tried lou's short stick.

I've had the pro 5 stick--too long,the pro 5-1and1/2 in cut off -right length but i dont like the left angle cut.I now have the short stick from Speed Inc. and I love it -straight like Lous but about 3/4 in longer and a nice polished chrome look. OH yea i also had the LSS -nice but a little too short.

I have the UMI and I like it. I only have the stock shifter, but it feels a lot better with the UMI. Another plus, is the UMI is only $20 + shipping.

I have the speed inc model, and there is a gp going on with that stick too. there is also two different styles of stick you can choose from, from what i hear you can't go wrong with either UMI, LSS, or speed inc.....lss being a little bit more expensive (almost double i think).
