Yeah, didn't make much sense to me either (too much GT at home and Initial D arcade). So I followed this. Highly recommended as when just cruising I much prefer the shifter myself.

Coming from a Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart with stationary paddle shifters, I would buy a kit if they didn't move with the wheel. I find it was much easier to shift while turning in the ralliart because they didn't move.

Look I know.

If it is longer you just play with it more.

Well, less people voted than I expected. Apparently we have less AT driving members than I thought. Once you discount the obvious guys that had no business voting and were just trying to skew the vote (I'm guessing although I don't know why), it's still pretty solidly in favor of something being done. Just not enough interest to get a company involved

Those look perfect. Thanks for posting. I was thinking that color matched would be better but after seeing the pic of them on they look good.

$109 for 2 pieces of plastic?

Edit: Didn't realize they have adhesive strips, never mind. Good price!

If they were $50-$60 I would buy on the spot. $109 is making me think do I really need these? Are they worth it? I will probably buy them and love them, I just need a little bit to let that thought sit and accept it
