Default 05 Automatic Shifter

I would like to change or step up toa fancier shift on my automatic05 Mustang GT, all I see are a lot of choicesfor the standard shift. I wish Hurst made something for an automatic. I know its difficult with overdrive set into the shifter. Anyone seen something interesting out there. I don't want the little chrome stickum pieces they charge an arm and a leg for, something sharp and classey.Thanks Don

Default Metak FX 70 Chrome Rims

I have 4 beautiful Metal Fx Chrome rims 17x7.5, I want to get 2 more but wider,17x9's or 17x10's for the rear of my 05 Mustangand I don't think they are available. I have checkedmany sites for these rims and all they have is an 18x8 which does not get it for me. I want some rubber on the road. Any info is greatly appreciated. Don

TCI is supposedly coming out with an auto ratchet shifter later this year. Don't hold your breath because the thing has been delayed countless times. There is also another which is supposed to be on the way, but it looks like something that belongs in a go kart. Here is the TCI shifter:

They have it listed, but try buying one...you'll be in for a long wait. TCI is still (still!) working out the kinks with this thing.

I like my setup but I don't think it will work with the stock trans. It's a B&M pro stick. We mounted it to look like a stock 5 speed shifter at a glance.

I guess this is more of an example of what you can do if you get creative more then a solution.

What problems did you run into, and how did you overcome them?
