Problems

If you don't own a drill and a 1/2 drill bit don't buy this.

Tips

Take the old knob off. Drill the new knob out till you almost go through the damn thing. This makes the shifter sit at a usable level. The Shifter sits ALOT lower than stock reducing the throw between gears. This results in faster shifting. The more you drill the shifter knob the lower it goes. After drilling to desired level, wrap current "stick" with electrical tape to preserve the stock threads and to tighten the fit with the new shifter. After installation and tightning of the set screws take her for a spin. You should notice you can shift more qucickly and more accurately. If you realy want to get crazy then cut the actual stick with a hacksaw. Good luck with the install.. If you have more questions E-Mail me.

Thoughts

Looks Great.. Adds a custom look to the interrior. We all know that there are not many after market parts for the 240.

Other

It's a $20 modification. DO IT!
