MGW or Roush STS Pics?


Does anybody have pictures of the MGW or Roush STS installed with the stock knob? I want to keep the stock look but I'm obviously wanting to reduce the throw of the stock shifter. Does the shift knob keep the same height with these shifters?

Not sure about the height, but I have the stock knob on my MGW. I like it though. I take a pic for you.

I know you didn't mention it but the Steeda Tri-Ax uses the stock knob as well, and has two height settings. The higher is pretty close to stock, the lower setting (I use, love it) is a couple inches lower. Short shifter = great mod, just don't go cheap no name, heard bad things about off brand shifters.

Shifter is an easy install. From the height of the tall a** stock shifter an inch isn't too low. Def. noticeable difference and the throw is much shorter as well (the point).

Will post pics tonight.

I have an 07 GT. The stock shifter is not tall at all. That is my point, I want to keep the stock knob appearance and height. Does anyone have a picture of an 05-09 with one of these shifters installed?

I don't have any pics but have the MGW and used the stock knob for a while. The stem that the knob attaches to can be raised and lowered. Originally I had the stock knob and had it close to stock height (never measured just went by feel) and it was exactly like having the stock setup appearance and feel wise but stiffer and shorter throw. Now I have a ball knob and lowered the shifter stem as far as I can and love it way more.
