Well I'm an auto so I have no experience with shifters. But everything I read about the Hurst says "2005-2009."

I really doubt there would have been any changes to the shifter since 05.

The Hurst is a really cool looking shifter. If I could, I'd put one on my auto. LOL

what kind of trouble are you having? i installed my pro 50 without too much difficulty. if nothing else, look up taco bill's hot links, i think there's an install guide there that might help you out.

are you just having trouble getting it thru the floor board, or what?
