That's just for the Shift **** Adaptor so you can add any **** you want, then you can go find a Corvette C6 break the window and just take there **** Jk. Find a C6 **** on Ebay, craigslist or even corvette forum on the part section.

It would be nice if the C6 auto shifter would just fit in a C5, much nicer fit and finish, and the lower style shifter just fits a Vette so much better

The C5 manual guys switch to the C6 style all the time, why do us C5 auto guys get the "crap end of the stick"

The stock C5 auto shifter is an eye sore!
