Default Automatic shifter please !!!

I am still looking for a quality replacement shifter for my Auto Mustang. The stock plastic shifter just isn't cutting it.
Has ANYONE found anything?

I see that RPM Outlet lists one, but it doesn't seem to be available ...

HURST Competition/Plus SHORT THROW SHIFTER 05-07 4.0L V6 FORD MUSTANG

I looked at the B&M site some time back, and they indicated theirs was "in development". No change I can see.

I don't think it's ever been released.

i agree with STL. To my knowledge, there is no replacement shifter for the auto tranny of a S197. You can try adding a little chrome bezel to the round sides of the top of the handle. Or get what AC/DC has around the trim to make it a little flashier. But thats about it.

I cannot believe no one is building a replacement.
You can buy a billion different hood prop rods but not a shifter in site.
I am thinking of modifying one of the Sport Shifters to fit.

Next time, order the Clutch Delete Option from the dealer.

Sorry guys... I had only seen it in passing through the site looking for the Hurst Comp/Plus. With me having a standard, I wasn't paying attention to what the automatic shifter cost.

And GT08... He has the "Clutch Delete Option," he just wants to replace the shoddy, plastic, stock automatic shifter to a fancier one.

Concidering the huge number of automatics on the V6s, you would think somebody would see a BIG market opportunity?

Thanks for the link, but...

That is exactly what we DON'T want.

That is the F'n UGLIEST shifter on the market!!! (And the ONLY one at this time for the S197)

Look at all those sweet, chrome plated, automatic shifters up in the header!!

What the hell was B&M thinking when they made THAT "THING"?!?!?

I'm pissed at them, the 2008 are out and they've had 3 full model years to come up with SOMETHING else!

Maybe I'll email them...

You should've gotten the "Clutch Option."

I wouldn't want to change mine, I like the retro cover plate.
