Yes they are worth every penny. I wish my shifter would have been my first mod. Most aftermarket shifters feature adjustable stops so you don't overshift the transmission and screw it up. My Pro 5.0 is awsome it make a tink sound when I shift and I never miss a gear.

yes, by all means, buy an aftermarket shifter! VERY EASY INSTALL. i reccomend the pro 5.0 shifter also. the other highly used company would be the steeda tri-ax. you cant go wrong with either one and you'll never miss a shift.
