Has anyone attempted to upgrade the push-down type shifter to a later 1999.5+ shifter? My 98 is pretty worn and supposedly the later years had better feel. Neuspeed makes a kit (66.10.60) that includes a short shifter in a later style housing but its at least $270. Any thoughts?

will shift assembly without push-down reverse work on early model B5 with push-down? If changes are needed, what is different? Thanks, Mark
