Default Short shifters

I need help in choosing a short throw shifter. Dont know what is the best for my 99GT. I'm looking for something better then the OEM shifter, but still road practical. The only brands that stand out are Steeda and Hurst.
Thanks

Pro 5.0 is one of the best. The ONLY reason I have a B&M is because it was free.

MGW is the only one I'd even think about installing if I bought another mustang. I have it with my t56 and love it.

i have a steeda tri-ax and it was way better than the original shifter. shifting is very tight and accurate.
