I have the Manzo short throw shifter installed and with the armrest it's comfortable to have you just have to go under it just a bit to pull up the e.

also it may just be me or the short throw but shifting into 2nd and 4th are a little different then before due to spacing(get a long shift knob and it solves everything ha) but after a day with the armrest in you completely get used to everything and it becomes a great drive !

Ok so armrest arrived and I took 5 minutes and put it in before heading home. It is much better on the arm now. A bit of a pain in the @ss to work the ebrake but overall I am happy with the add on. I want to give thanks to CW383 on here for selling me a nice piece at a good price.


With the TWM shortshifter it is non obtrusive.

You just have to get used to it, to me it wasn't a big deal since I had the armrest on my basemodel so always had it
