Default Shifter

I am getting a new shifter but I wanted to know what people thought about the MGW. There is not a whole lot said about them on here.

I have it in my car. I have had it for two years now. I have all the parts they sell and once they do not have anymore. Here is a picture what it looks like with the e-brake. Anything else just ask

Mine came with the the gasket.

When I got the shifter not many people had it and even fewer used the gasket.

The gasket seems to work out well. But one has to becareful, because you will now have to use locktite to keep things tight. If you over tighten the gasket you will get leaks. Not tight enough and the mounting hardware could back out.

I don't plan on pulling the shifter anytime soon and would rather know it is sealed and nothing is loose then always wondering.

The MGW rules, there's no noise like with other shifters and it is simple to install and it makes the stocker look like a joke. It's such a difference. It's definately worth the money.
