Default Shift levers

I'm looking for a new shift lever, not a whole shifter just the lever, I really liked the roush classic kit but I didn't have a manual at the time I saw it, now that I do it seems to have become unavailable. I considered purchasing the tri ax shifter arm but not sure that's exactly what I want. What I'm looking for is something similar to that but instead of the second bend pointing the shifter back up I just want the first bend and then straight back towards me. Im not very short and where I like my seat adjusted I have to lean forward a little for 1-3-5 gears. It's kinda annoying. Please excuse my crude iphone drawings lol

That would work good with a fox but the layout of the sn-95 feels
Different, my knees already hit the dash when I go to press the brakes as it is adjusted to reach the shifter now. I'm thinking I might buy a short throw shifter then get the stock lever from a scrap yard and heat it and bend it how I want.

I have the same. Love it. Is there any way to get just the boot and bezel though? I'd hate to have to buy a new kit just to get those.D:

get a MGW shifter and you can adjust the shifter 360 degrees to make it easier to shift when going forward
