Protege 5 shifter in my 1st gen (pics)

well thanks to Funky Buddha for sending me his stock shifter out of his 2003 P5, i have instaled it without any problems into my 90 LX, well onto the pics


the P5 shifter from Funky Buddha


the stock 90 LX shifter hight


after the install

i can notice shorter throws and everything is a little closer, but its nothing to get excited about, it dosnt look all that lower but you feel the difference

thanks funky buddha

i removed everything for like a week while i spray painted it properly, with primer then yellow as a bightener, then the colormatched blaze red, then a few cans of clearcoat and it shines nicly, still not done tho

to top it off might as well get the Mazda Oem shiftboot and ****. or goto corksport and get the Leather boot off there and the mazdaspeed ****. Just a nice suggestion. Corksport sells the Mazda Speed aluminum **** in red. so it will match :-p
