huh?

a shifter is rediculously easy to install dude, its 4 bolts after you take the shift boot off [Confused]

seriously. I had to pull the console in my 84 to do it, but still only took like 10 min. Do it yourself and save the $$$

basically i would be getting it installed for $25 cuz they give you a free shift knob that's valued at like 50 or something? buying from them, taking the car there, having it installed there..

the stock shiftknob is the best looking knob you can have in a foxbody IMO, dont waste money on a different look.
