Can I change the shifter on the auto?

Rudeboy · 07-29-2003

Hi all I was wondering if it is possible to change the shifter on the automatic to something nicer? I saw one in a magazine that has extra buttons to control the stereo volume or raise and lower the windows and all kinds of stuff but it looks like a ball like you would put on the manual so is it possible to do it or not?

i changed my shifter on the auto. . .and it has no buttons or trigger to shift gears. . .basically its a manual tranny shifter.

You can get shifter that has those buttons, but your gonna have to wire them to what you want. It would work no doubt because all a shifter actually is really is a stick.

That's really cool . .hehe disguising it. . I would be like WTF if I didn't know and went for a ride in that car.

Wait. . . do you mean the shift knob or the shift boot?

If you mean shift boot, then check out InanimatCarbonRod's ride.

I'm not sure about the buttons you re talking about. Do you have any pictures of it?

i think awhile ago, there was a shift knob wit like 4 buttons on it that was able to controls things..

LiLaSiiAn8 · 07-29-2003

doesnt cost alot anyway..

If I remember correctly, Greg [MugenRacerX] at www.hondawerx.com told me it was $38 for the Manual shift boot. That's pretty good. I'd recommend going thru him. I bought mine from my dealer though. . . for $42 [you can check my sig for a pic of it].

Oh, and the pic I posted belongs to InanimatCarbonRod. You can check out SkiLLsZter's ride as well.

hey monica where did u buy the shiftboot

evol · 07-30-2003

has anyone tried to do the shifter chance with say... a b&m ratcheting shifter for a fourspeed auto tranny ... like the chevy 400... I was just wondering if the length that the cable travels is the same then basically any shifter you wanted would work

EnProceso · 07-31-2003

heres mine, i got lazy and didnt order the manual console piece..

never herd of the knob your talking about though, where it can adjust the radio and windows, etc.... just dont be lazy and reach for the controls! j/k
