Automatic Shifter Handle Repacement - About time
Hello all. I have to say that I don't get the copying a manual at all with the boot. I also think the stock shifter looks really cheap. Just reading the May issue of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords and I cam across an ad from UPR Products. If I get a stang it will be an automatic and I would pick one of these shifters:

Now if UPR could figure out how to make the pistol grip for 05-09 Autos.....that would be sweet.
Looks great Jack ! When i get some time, i will come over and install it the other way.Been a little busy lately ( i did get your emails) with my motor issues. I did get the motor out, so i am halfway there. I will send you some interesting info when i get to work in the morning.

that's right I forgot about that. That's gotta keep you busy. Talk to you soon I hope.
These all look super, especially Cutterwolf, like the red stitching and ball on yours Wingman75.
I'm ordering this setup myself, does anyone have some pictures on how you are "tucking in the leather boot", not following your verbal pictures too well. The tuck in does look the best.
Plus where is a good site to order bezels and such?

Here's some feedback on this shifter and blk281gt. I'll stick to the facts.
I bought this shift handle at a swap meet in March. For some reason, the way the shift handle attaches to the shifter on my 06 convertible is different than the product is designed for so it will not fit. blk281gt acknowledged that handles on some 06 and earlier cars are different and the imitator handle will not fit. I've received multiple promises from blk281gt to produce a handle that will fit and to date have received nothing. blk281gt indicated to me (including on this forum) that if I wasn't happy I could return the product and receive a refund. My wife (BabyBStang) has made numerous phone calls to blk281gt requesting a refund and has received no response. He never answers and never returns messages. As it stands now I'm out $175 and stuck with a handle I can't use.
For the record, I gave up waiting for blk281gt to make good on his promise to produce a usable handle and installed a TCI Street Fighter shifter. It didn't cost all that much more and is a way nicer product.

Now that would really drive the parking lot attendants nuts.
