I contacted them helping some others out and K2 said that they havn't tested it on the 07. What I would say to people wanting to know this is contact the dealer and ask if the shifter has changed any. Or, get the part number for the 06 shifter from TRD and compare it to the part number for the 07 from TRD. if it's the same, you're good to go.

You're only going to pay for the TRD label and the fact that the dealer is selling it to you. That's all.

I don't want a big drop (just a slight or no drop), and shorter shifts, but not super throw reduction. I'm on the lookout as well... but not the TRD shifter. You do get the ****, but subtract the price for that, and you're still over $200. Better deals to be found elsewhere.

I got mine Creative Compacts SS in. The car drive likes a dream now. The install was quite a biotch to do. Pulling the plastic ring that holds the metal shifter in the housing had to be the toughest job. You are not going to be able to brute force it out. You have to pry the plastic off by jabbing it with a screwdriver and lifting it up from the back. All in all, this is a good bang for your buck mod. Cant beat $69 bucks.
