Other than having to get dirty crawling under the car, the shifter is an easy install. You will get some bloody knuckles though.

I have had mine for over a year, one of the best mods I did. You may find over time that the shifter handle bolts will come loose and cause a rattle. Simple fix is to replace the Hurst bolts with through bolts and put a nut on the other side with lock-tite. Never had a problem since.

As others said, as it "breaks in" a bit, it will even feel better. Congrats!

I understand some people aren't comfortable with some installs, but intalling the hurst took less time than my BBK CAI. Great shifter, beats the hell out of stock.

I'll leave the 'Hurst sucks' comments out and just say congrats and I'm glad you're happy.

Just don't try to hard shift at a track and it should be fun on the street.

I've always liked the stick and ball of the hurst and it looks great. Just wish the actual shifter was any better than stock. BTW: I think the way you did the boot looks fine...I kinda like it...[8D]
