I went to the local import store and tried to talk to the man behind the counter about buying a short shifter. Unfortuanetly he didn't seem to want to talk to me much, and refused to tell me anything about the shifters they had in the case, but he seemed very adamant on selling me a DC short shifter. He said that they could install it there, and would perform some "special mod" to it to make it better. I told him I was more than capable of installing my own shifter (how hard could it be, right?), but he said they "mod" would make the shifter much smoother and better, but would only tell me its some special bushing they add to it.
Well, after that extremely long intro here are my questions:
First, is it possible to add some bushing and other 'magical' part to make it that much better?
and
Second, is the shifter worth the $55 they sell it for plus the $75 the charge for installation?
and
Third, is the DC short shifter, any good, or is it worth spending more for a nicer shifter?
Thanks in advance,
Luti
