Are you talking about the shift handle and knob kit? Can you provide a link?

Doesn't look like a bad piece, I would go for it. If it takes a $hit on you, then at least you only spent less than $70 on it. But it looks good so I don't think it will.

Installed yesterday and so far so good. Only problem I had with the install was the bolts that have to fit into clips when installing the dust boot. was in a rush so the dust boot is just sitting on top now not secured. will probably work on it today. Otherwise the shifts feel a little better, but i havent tested it too hard...yet.

I've had it on my '01 for a few years now. It works well, and have had no problems with it......
