Love the wheel and the shifter! Must have been a bear changing it to Right hand drive!

Other than the steering wheel (I know what that does), what do the others do, like the switch by the hand brake?

Brent...........lookin' good but perhaps you should also consider the leather boot for the shift lever and dump the OEM plastic stuff.

I've always had a soft spot for the plastic bits.....except the rubber boot and T shift which I thought were a bit 80's! My auto is an auto rather than a pretend manual!

Hi Bert

Lol...we have the same alarm system,,,,,the little double rubber button,,,I put mine in same place

Question for you....I was thinking of a similar shifter to yours but I rest my left arm on my T,Bar,,,can you still do that with that shifter or would it press the button on top ??

All the best Brett

I'm guessing it would probably press down the button, saying that though you can adjust the height of the button by moving the gearknob up or down (Gearknob was from Jager) It's sitting quite high in the photos as I remove it when not in use for added security - just pulls straight out and locks the box in P.

That's funny, Brett, I do the same thing! It's a perfect stabilizer when you're fiddling with the stereo on a bumpy road, isn't it?!

Bert,
She's lookin' good!

It's from a Mitsubishi Evo 4 or at least a Lancer of around '94 vintage.

Hey Ross,
What does that switch do, fire missiles from the headlights?
