It's been a year.. i really don't remember. I purchased it from axial flow's web site.

scroll to the bottom. He's selling them for 259 which I think is exactly how much it was last year. Probably the best performance mod you can do for you car at that price. And it takes all of 10 minutes to install.

This thread is a sticky in the wheels section.
It is called the "will it fit" thread
Start there

I wouldn't go as far as calling it a performance mod. It will however give you a much better driving experience that comes with a short throw shifter. We unanonymously agreed the AFE short shifter is one of the best mods to perform on the car. It makes each shift almost orgasmic.

I hear that constantly, but honestly have never been dissattisfied with the stock shifter... it's a short little snick-snick unit as it is, I would imagine shorter might evne be worse...
