RE: Hurst shifter, ugly ...
IMO the Hurst shifter should have been installed as original equipment on the Mustang. I would imagine the people that don't like the white shifter **** are of a younger generation and don't relate the classic look to the retro styling of our Stangs.
Hurst shifter with white ****= muscle car to me.

+1 on hating the white ball in the s197, it just looks totaly out of place. [:'(]
Every option I have seen mentioned in here all look like ***, the t-handle looks just as bad as the white ball..
This is whyI prolly won't change my shifter.
JMO anyways. [8D]

I installed the hurst a few days ago and was surprised at how ugly the white ball was.... I thought it would look cool.
Im willing to buy a black one, maybe even a angled stick, but after a few days ive started to like the white ball... and people who look into my car can't help but notice the hurst shifter standing out... i might keep it.
and hey, i save $30+ that way

If you do want a black ball then get it off amazon, I like jegs for something i need the next day and larger orders but the $11 charge on something that was 30 is kinda tough to swallow. Amazon has the black ***** for about 25-30 and free shipping.

A classic design is a classic design. You dont have to like it, that is why its an aftermarket piece. You can get the short shift and retain the stock look. I personally love it. It is a serious conversation piece when people look inside. I might get the black ball should I feel like toning it down a bit, but hell, if I wanted things toned down, I should have not gotten a yellow one
