Any problems with the shifter?
No, I think w/ the autos you have to extend it but the manual shifter is so long it's fine, and the body is cut out enough that you can still hit all the gears. 4LO works as well (although it's really close to that third cupholder.) SLR told me today I should go ahead and notch the body out a bit there just for safety's sake.

Also, the X has the same goofy steel hoop that bolts to the seat mounts and runs through a mount on a crossmember that the old Pathys have.

Yup, it's a driveshaft "safety loop." I did pretty much the same thing, couldn't figure out why it took so much damn effort to jack up the body for the middle mounts, finally saw it through the side of the third skidplate (left that one on for the install), pulled it out, and all is well.
