Hi all
Just wondering if anyone's seen or used this gizmo for converting a stock-type shifter action to that of a Slap-Stick?

We're fitting a console & stock shifter to our 69 Sport Satellite but are a bit concerned that, with this standard type of mechanism, it's a bit too easy to go right thru the gears when shifting 1 to 2, or 2 to D, and straight into neutral :icon_frown:
We used to have an old B&M Z-gate shifter - it was a pig to get & keep adjusted properly but at least you could bang it into gear without fear of going past the gear you were shifting into.
This conversion is supposed to give you that function - like the Slap-Sticks and (most?) aftermarket shifters.
At only $30 I'm thinking it's worth trying out.
Anyone else come across them?
