[QUOTE="trueblueeyes, post: 3485379, member: 29257"] Hmmm...Allow me to play devil's advocate for a minute. First of all, I had a Pro 5.0 shifter in my 93 coupe and loved it. I now have a MGW in my Cobra and it is great. The Pro 5.0 shifter was wonderful, but the MGW is in a league all by itself. I love being able to angle the shifter handle anywhere I want it, and the quality of the unit is top notch. So both shifters are great, I just prefer the MGW. NOW...as to why it is a good idea to get recommendations on any products, including a shifter for your car. The first shifter I bought for the Cobra was an inexpensive Blue Thunder shifter from UPR. Don't get me wrong...UPR makes some good stuff but the shifter isn't one of them. I absolutely hated just how notchy that shifter was. If I had read some user reviews first, I could have saved the cash I wasted on that purchase (...so much for saving money). So yes, I will sing the praises of the MGW. It is simply the best shifter I have ever used. And it isn't that I have sold my soul to any one manufacturer...It is just that if I find a product that really works (like CobraBob's shifter gaskets) and I am happy with it, I want to let other owner's know so they don't have to waste as much cash on "trial-and-error" as I have.
