+1 Seal it up before you bolt it down. I think the MGW comes with some dynamat material with it, someone correct me if I'm wrong there, but that your option whether you want to put that stuff in or not.
ive only seen the 05+ model shifters come with dynamat.
and to the OP, like everyone said just lay down some new gasket material, swap them and you're good to go. also make sure your car is cold, dont be like me and strip the bolt hole.
