I highly do not recommend eBay short shifters. Most of these will vibrate and/or break or snap.

I was looking at them to seeing as how I'm gonna buy the hasport shiftlinkage because the linkage they sent me with the swap was kinda fucked up. I was just going to get a B&M.

wow ebay shifters, $12 dollars shipped, it may seem cheap, but its not cheap enough, they're worth about $3. two of my friends broke theres, so i decided to go B&M. they're about $45-$65, but are well worth it in the long run.
