2002 - ws6 Hey guys, looking to buy a 2002 WS6. Going through the RPO codes I'm trying to figure out if the car has the Hurst shifter. Currently only have a half-decent pic of the shifter area and can't tell if the shifter has the "H" Working on getting a better pic. Anyway, I see that RPO code BBS is for the Hurst Shifter... this car does not have that code. But it does have 1SA group code - which I "think" includes the HURST option? Did they drop the BBS code for the later Firebirds? This is a AUG 2002 build date car.
Any ideas?

I think I answered the question.. and it's NO ...does not have HURST. Next question.. can I add the HURST shifter option? where would I purchase this, how hard to install it? I don't want any other third-party option.. want it to look the same as the cars that came with it...

Hurst shifter was in fact RPO "BBS". There was no other way/option group to get the shifter. And this RPO was the same for anything from a Z28 to a WS6.
As for your second question, I'm not sure if it's possible to buy the exact same Hurst shifter and handle as what would have come from GM in that era.
