Default Tall shifter?

I have seen a couple taller shifters for sale lately. Does anyone have one? Do you like it? How does it feel/ shift compared to stock height?

I got the rothsport one which is perfect in every way except it's not tall enough. Needs another 50mm then it would be perfect!

It's all about keeping your hands on the wheel and not having to reach far for the shifter.

The downside with a longer shifter is more throw, so short throw shifter is recommended.

Rothsport over cable IMO but the rothsport should be 50mm taller as said.

Love the look of the cae shifter, but I'm very happy with the feel and performance of the rothsport setup.

Anyone have experience with both? Is cae an " upgrade"?
