RK Sport has "inked" a deal with B&M for their first run of short throw shifters for the Cobalt. This unit will work with the LS models only until they get there testing done on the SS. We expect as with most of what Chevy has done in the past that this will also work with the SS. But until we get confirmation it is being sold for the LS version only for now.

Retail will be $179.95 but our pre-sale will run for 30days or until the shifters become available. (Supposed to be 30 days from now)

Pre-sale price is $149.95 Save $30 just by pre-ordering. Remember a credit card will be needed for the pre-sale order but will not be charged until the units ship out.

Part # 12094518

Inquiries please call 800-214-8030

thats cool man, keep up the good work, i have a B&M shifter for my cav and i love it, jolly good show fellas.

Alot of your posts are really useless...

Thanks for the info though! I may just jump on this for the SS when its available.

But until we get confirmation it is being sold for the LS version only for now.
Does it work with the Base models as well? I am not sure if they have a different trans or anything with all the talks of reverse lockout and such lately. I have been waiting for B&M to come out with one, but I just want to make sure it will work for my car before I commit.

I'm sorry that you think the Cobalt is useless. May I suggest a different forum for you to be on?

Didn't you see that I quoted Eddie? He said "Thats cool man" which is similar to his typical comments, and provided no value to your thread.

Shortshifter=good
Useless comments in your thread (and others)=bad

why?

why would I want to add reverse lockout to my car, thats one thing I like about it, is the fact I don't have to dink with it.

i doubt they would add the reverse lock to the ones that dont have it.

im lookin forward to ordering one once my cobalt arrives :D

RC, does the rksport cobalt get driven around town much? or does it just sit at the rksport wherehouse? I keep hoping ill see it around temecula hehe :)

so will this void my warranty, or give me a hard time after my lease??
i dont kno how they would even be able to tell tho

Just pull it back out and sell it when its time to turn the car in. Thats what I am going to do with my add ons if I decide not to buy the car when the lease is up.

ok i just preordered my short shifter I cant wait to get it. I didnt plan on modding this car but it will be on its way especially when my warranty is up

Been talked to B&M my self and the shifter should be ready by the end of May from what I have been told. Soon as its ready I my self should have quiet a bit of these show up to the shop . . . already listed on the website as well . . . by May 1st my banner should also be up in the vendor section since it would make sense to start from the start of a month and not in the middle . . . either way... soon as I get the stuff in stock I will let you guys know . . . .

Yes, the SS does have a short throw, however the B&M is much more appealing!

correct me if im wrong, doesnt the ss/sc have a short throw shifter already?


sorry for the confusion, I pulled the wrong quote :red:
