Default Shifter ****

A few days back someone was talking about custome shifter ***** for the C3 and how they could not find any. I thought about that last year when I was looking for a custom ****. I started to mention that I was making one but I thought I would just wait until it was finished. I finished it and wanted to show/Brag about it :D

I was the one that posted that topic. You did a great job. Would you consider making some for resale?

Drive On,
TJ :cool: :cheers:

I might. I do this as a hobby, so this took a little over two weeks to do in my spare time.. I think that I could make a couple more. If your interested email me and can give you the specs and see if that will match with what you need.

The reason I'd like a new one is because in the summer mine burns my hand and in the winter it freezes my hand. I want something that doesn't retain heat and cold so well. :yesnod:

Maybe I can put cooling fins (Heat sink style) to help remove the heat :lol:

Sprint;
Is there a reason it's two piece?
Is it just for an excuse to bolt it back together? :lol:

And I assume that when it's on the car the button pops up?

The orginal desing was not allow the button to be removed from the shifter. Would have been easier to make without it. :yesnod:
I do like the looks tho. Yes the button does pop up when installed on the shifter...
