It also mounts via an allen set screw, so no more tugging/yanking to remove it.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I don't like the shape of it. Shift ***** are supposed to be round, IMO. Are there any other OEM ***** that will fit and are round? - Anthony

POST 4Original post

holy smokes, they want a lot of money for a shift ****.

POST 5Original post

That first one is the Techart ****... It can be found cheaper, but you'll have to make your own shift boot made/modified.

POST 7Original post

what kind of shift **** do you have that you dislike?...

POST 9Original post

Very timely post! I also dislike the stock **** on my 2002 C2...way too thin at the bottom, tall, and just plain, well, plain. I just ordered the 3rd one from Sunset..$308, with some other items. It is the same 6 speed **** used on the later Boxster S's. Not round, but better than the stock one...I hope. I like the Turbo *****, but don't like it to say Turbo, as if I'm a poseur. I also like round ones, but the techart one shown required a boot similar to the one I ordered. just too $$$. I plan on doing a comparison/measuring post.

POST 10Original post

Well, IMHO, this was money very well spent. The replacement **** is metal, with a covered leather section, so it has much nicer heft and shifts smoother. It is also shorter and better proportioned. Also, the engraved in metal shift pattern is just much much nicer than the plastic insert on the stock & similar *****. It also mounts via an allen set screw, so no more tugging/yanking to remove it. I might try the B&M SS (again, I still have it mounted in another carrier), but it really shines with just the replacement 997 shifter. I know this is "old news" to old timers on this board, but since P cars are rare in many non Cali locations, it's not like you can see different ***** for comparison just anywhere. Some comparison pics..
