Yes I see exactly what you guys are talking about...only problem is the exhaust is in the way, aparently you have to take like the middle section off, and then slide it off, then you will be able to loosen the screws and get the stock shifter off. Also the bolts are totally fuking rusted and are like impossible to get off just about. what really sucks is, i thought this would be a 15min install, and that just is not possible. oh yeah and i forgot to mention, also you have to remove the entire center console. which i just got done putting back together, and just now drove my car off the ramps. I guess i'll put off installing it for now.
