I have a conference call scheduled tomorrow afternoon with the engineer who designed the shifter. I will bring all your feedback to him, and once we come up with good information I will be back.

Thanks for the constructive criticism, I really appreciate it. I really want to get more in tune with the consumer, and web forums like this make it possible. I have heard the heat shield gripe, as well as the increased 'noise' more than once. Most of the time, an aftermarket unit may create a little more noise inside the cabin. Typically new bushings take care of the noise, but not all cars are the same.

Answers will follow soon guys!

Take care,
Mike

I think that everyone that has a B&M and has the rattle has replaced their bushings. That's usually the first thing that everyone suggests when we post those problems.

I think this is AWESOME! to have someone from a major company that we all buy things from come out here and get our opinions. I'd like to think you are the first of many mkiimike. I applaud you for taking the initiative and posting out here man, it really shows that you care about what you do. :thumbup:

Props man.. props!

I'm a car guy myself man, and a younger one at that I'm into old school Toyotas (celicasupra.com is my site) and I know what its like to not have anyone answer questions. Hell, no one makes anything for my old junker, so I have to have everything fabricated (you guys are spoiled

A few local Honda buddies swear by this site, so I figured it would be the 1st on my tour. :thumbup:
