Default Aftermarket Shifter

The stock shifter **** was showing wear and I decided to replace. This is the shifter I found on e-bay (149.00). It was very easy to install and I connected the blue LED wires from the shifter to the light in my console (ash tray). Attached are some pictures. The leather only came in black.

It looks well stitched. It looks good with the exception of the light being blue. If it was a pure white and short shift.... That would be pretty nice.

It is very well made and you can get the whitelight. I wanted blue led to match the blue in my Passport radar detector. The blue is not overpowering and is only on with the lights.
