Nice to see so many RLers doing this mod. I considered it, but now I'm not so sure. I don't have any issues with the current shifter and I feel like it's a perfect DD setup. The notchiness is there but it isn't something I see as a negative, especially for daily commutes.
Maybe I need someone in the SoCal area to give me the opportunity to compare the shifts back to back with my car.

I used Rector for mine at they gouged at 3 hours but I had other dealer work being done so I grinned and beared it! 
At least you know you wont get scratched trim pieces...
They also refused to unselect my power steering plus so I don't anticipate using them anymore. Looking for a good independent

I'm about to pull the trigger on this SSK. Since day one, I've felt that the throw was a bit on the long'ish side.
Just read all 8 pages of this thread and didn't see anyone mention if this SSK eliminated any of the play/slop in the shifter. My Cayman has some side to side play. I'm hoping this SSK with it's upgraded bushings might alleviate some of it.
Can anyone chime-in regarding this?

If somebody could do a YouTube installation video on the SSK they would be my hero.

In my experience the SSK shifter is much tighter. I'd attribute it to the tight spring action now back to center.

My Porsche tech says this is possible to switch without removing the PCM. It would have saved another 10 minutes... Smh
