Don't know anybody with the 1st one
I have the 2nd one, and like it
Prolly get what you pay for with the 3rd one
Also consider MGW as a 4th one. Super adjustable handle, although I don't have issues with placement of mine.

orangestang42 · November 28th, 2010, 03:42 PM

yeah im iffy about the 3rd one, but i know the second one is gonna bid pretty high, just gonna have to keep my eyes open for the good deals

Mustang Accessories <--best shifter on the market

i have one and love it.

wick22 · November 28th, 2010, 03:58 PM

i have a steeda tri-ax and a hurst handle w/hurst bezel and i love it

FastStang91Lx · November 28th, 2010, 04:00 PM

Holy crap.... cut that handle down, lol. Looks like it belongs in an F150

wick22 · November 28th, 2010, 04:05 PM

its really not that tall its just the angle in the pics i guess

Dap1991 · November 28th, 2010, 04:47 PM

I think this summer im going to pick up a MGW they seem to be very good and i havent heard any complaints

selbyvince · November 28th, 2010, 04:57 PM

i have the pro 5.0 shifter and im more than satisfied with it. and holy s*** that handle is tall lol, the top of my handle is even with the top of my cd player if not a hair or two shorter.

selbyvince · November 28th, 2010, 04:59 PM

i used to have the hurst handle on mine and it was probably about that tall lol, i gave it away

wick22 · November 28th, 2010, 05:00 PM

i like the old school muscle look not a 2inch stub

selbyvince · November 28th, 2010, 06:29 PM

i hear you man, and your own personal opinion is all that counts, not talking down to it, i like the shorter one mainly on how comfortable it is to shift.

holset35 · November 28th, 2010, 07:16 PM

I have a Hurst shift with pistol grip handle I like it.

moneymo · November 28th, 2010, 09:00 PM

I have the first one but i dont like it. Im getting the third one in two weeks.

flyin ryan · November 28th, 2010, 10:05 PM

out of the three posted, the first one PRO5.0 is the top easily.. only other better would be the mgw but they don't sell cheap.

I have had three pro5.0's and will buy another when another car shows up in my driveway.. steeda isn't bad neither, they make some really nice quality stuff.

ryanw · November 28th, 2010, 10:30 PM

Im running an old old school hurst shifter that isnt ajustable i pulled it out of my 85 gt right before i sold it. its got to be almost close to 18 years old by now, and i got to say ive never had a problem with it

centipede3001 · November 28th, 2010, 10:39 PM

i have had the first one for 3 years now and i like it alot no problems with it ever

orangestang42 · November 28th, 2010, 11:36 PM

awesome, thanks for all the tips guys looks like im gonna have to give the pro 5.0 a shot, i really dont wanna pay the high dollar that they want for the mgw
