I did my test drive tonight. Shifting into reverse is easy. When I tried shifting into reverse after installing the UMI Short Stick my engine was off and so was the electrical system, so it was hard due to the lock-gate thing. Shifting through the gears is actually easier with the shorter stick - as you'd guess the throws are shorter and therefore faster, but no extra effort is required at all. Even for reverse! And I didn't miss any shifts and hit the wrong gear by accident either...!

Got mine in the mail today,install took like 10 min. tops.This is the first mod I have done to my new SS,& I think its going to be one of the best.
All gears are mush easier to find now(this is my 1st manual car),reverse is as easy as 1st.
Thanks for the great product,fast shipping and excellent costumer service.
