AT Shifter Too Long???

JZ_ · 02-22-07, 03:27 PM

Is there any way I can replace the stock shifter on my automatic coupe. That sh*t gets anoying from being too high.

A few people have replaced their shifters with MDX knobs. I couldn't find a DIY, but its been done. Do a little searching and you'll find some things you could use to make it happen. To make it shorter and seem to fit better, I think people have shaved down the plastic part revealed once the OEM shifter is removed. Do a little searching.

Hey John, where'd you get that Accord boot from? I can't find any on Ebay, atleast not any that don't have goofy red "JDM" stitching

It's from a 91 - 93 Accord, right?
