cheesy and useless to me. have you ever wondered what gear you were in and a display would help you figure it out? .. : P

I suppose it's a decent 'interior bling' piece but meh, not worth it.

From the default picture they have advertising it, it looks nice. ONLY because of the interior coloring. Besides, when you got your hand on the shifter, you can't see the number anyways. And why take your eye off the road to look DOWN and see the gear you're in? No. Not feeling it. On the newer Stangs with MyColor, there's already a TON of lighting so I think this would be a cool addition. But not for $200.

Don't desecrate your Shelby bro. That thing belongs in a Honda and nothing else.

I think a few people here have it, I don't care for it personally. Spend the money on a new shifter, not ****.

I saw this a while ago while I was browsing the site. I thought "200 dollars for a shifter with a couple LEDs in it?" I feel like this is for people who have done every possible mod and are just looking for an excuse to spend money.
