[QUOTE="Honest Mike, post: 14475977, member: 4128"] I flipped the handle over to the 2013 and it fixed the problem I was having! Yes I measured the box, 15 times! It came up around the 1.75" or so mark. Definitely positively wasn't 2", that's why I put the shifter in with the 2011 side towards the reverse lockout. I did everything 100% by the instructions. But to be honest I kept saying to myself during the install this doesnt seem right installing the shifter in the 2011 configuration and the car is a 2014. I kept reading the instructions and kept measuring lol cause I didn't want to have to take anything apart again. But guess what, the second time goes easier lol. I had the knob, console, sound deadening material and rubber boot off in minutes. The handle can be flipped around without having to take the shifter back out of the car, thank god. 1 Allen screw. I said to myself I'm gonna give it a shot. If it doesn't fix it then oh well. I flipped the handle, screwed the knob on and took it for a quick beat lol and it was now perfect!! No more getting hung up between first and second whatsoever, no matter how hard I pushed left and up,or left and down. And no, reverse is no harder to get into regardless of which way the handle is on. For anyone having a problem that resembles my problem, take the 5 minutes and flip your handle over. Like I said above, I had no grinding or anything else going on, just didn't seem normal that I was getting hung up between first and second. Flipping the handle over fixed my problem!! Now I can drive that bitch with confidence up shifting or downshifting. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
