Reviving this as I had my shift lever bend in a fall yesterday…
This seems like a very good and affordable option. Curious how this mod is holding up after some time has passed now?
I went to the dealer who had the shift lever… 106 bucks new I was thinking like 50 bucks.. Comparing my bent one to the new one, my bent one wasn't way far off. A few hits with a mallet and my bent one was darn close to the new one. I checked for "cracks"… No visible cracks or stress but without doing that heat thing to relieve stress I'm sure it won't handle a hit again…
In any event I want to do this mod but before I sacrifice my new shifter to the mod gods, I want to be sure people have not had any issues with this over time...
