Default CreativeCompacts.Com Short Shifter $99 Shipped

Alright guys... its been awhile since any new information surfaced on this shifter so I got some new information...

Our prototype shifter is here now and since our car will not be here till April 2nd or so... We are sending the shifter to one of our customers to test. However I am very confident that this will fit with no issues with the installation instructions we have.

Finally... the Pricing... pending the fitment, the item will be introduced at $89 shipped for the first 50 shifters. Estimated ship date is April 30th and we will begin taking pre-orders as soon as I confirm this week that this shifter fits.



Please post if you have any other questions.

Unfortunately I couldnt wait any longer and I already bought and installed my TWM. I was all set to buy from you when you originally mentioned a $79 shipped price (including a ****) and a delivery date in Febuary, but as the time passed I just couldnt wait any longer. Im glad too since a May delivery date is too far away still in my opinion. Im sure your shifter will be nice, but in the end it only cost me $35 more for the real TWM, and I love it.

What about the quality? I'm not pulling apart my shifter to put in some bad ripoff... but then again, the one I want someone to make a copy of is the TRD - I don't want one where the shifter sits so low and looks all funny... just my feelings about it. Lots of people seem to like it low, but not me.

the B&M one sits almost the same height as the stock shifter, and the throws are much shorter

We will have more information on the shifter once the item is installed and tested. We are doing our own R&D...

Funny thing is... thanks to some posts on here... guess who called this morning... TWM hahaha

"Why are you trying to rip off our shifter?" James don't go there.... James don't go there...

Do these guys think they are the only ones that can design a shifter these days? Please... so TWM if you are reading this post, which I am sure you are... READ more before calling and harassing myself and my company.

Thanks
James
