I didn't take a picture of it because I am a moron, but it is a piece that has a huge tab that locks out reverse unless you pull the lockout ring up, so now the shifter can travel. Mine is broken to ****.

Can I buy the little plastic piece, or do I need a whole shifter?

cluelessk

Mine was worn away. You don't need it.

Plenty of cars have reverse in the same position without a reverse lock out.

ThoR294

If you don't have the lockout working, don't you have to hunt for 5th?

cluelessk

Nope. I was always under the impression you needed it but after adjusting my sts it doesn't even get near the stop.

ThoR294

Yeah I re-adjusted the shifter and I don't have to hunt for 5th anymore. The lockout ring just clicks when I move into 1-2 range because of the damn broken plastic and the spring pops on it. ughhhhhhhhhhh

Order a short throw. I love mine and haven't noticed a downside.

ThoR294

Yeah I am about to. GF gonna murder me

cluelessk

Easier to say I'm sorry than it is to ask permission.

hahahaha story of my life. Which STS did you get? I'm looking at BPS and OTTP

cluelessk

BPS. Being in Canada I didn't get screwed over with exchange rates.

As of last week BPS had a sale going on theirs.

ThoR294

I see. Do they not come with shift knobs?

cluelessk

Not included but they have them. I'm using a stock knob.

How is the BPS short throw shifter? I like the stock one but want some input on a good short throw for a decent price...

ThoR294
