Long story short I need another automatic gear shift ****! I can't find one anywhere. Maybe you manual conversion guys may have one or have access to one. Let me know ASAP! Any condition! Thanks

I contacted them first on Friday thru their customer service lady. And no one has called me back ... Normally they respond quickly but I'm not sure

Ok what happened you asked?! Well here you go

Let's say...... Hypothetically..... Ummmmm some smart guy decided to remove the console again to find a rattle that he found and being a car guy wanting to tinkle more... so I (ummm him lol) took the shifter assembly to add more screws to the shift boot base and to work on shortening the shaft an inch. He had meeting for a few days so He took it with him did the mod, it was looking great!!!!!!. Decided to put a creamy conditioner on it, put it on the bed of the truck in the DoubleTree parking lot, took a couple of business calls, daughters needed him(took family too), ran back in to meet other contractors, had dinner, took lil ones to get swim caps, etc!

He didn't think about it until the next morning when one of the general contractors(that he met on check it saw the assembly, who talked his love of sports cars, owns a Dodge Stealth RT & Z31) said, "how did your shifter grip turn out? I wanna see it." Went back to the room and remembered it was left on the truck with the dremel, small tool case... Needless to say it was all stolen!!!!!

That's right.... Hypothetically that's what happened. and the smart guy feels like a dummy!!!! Now he's running to find what he needs!

finally.... anyway I sourced an ole one from Z1 very cheap (almost gave it to me because I didn't need a good head on it because it is going to be covered anyway)! Joel at Z1 was great (Shanna never got back to me...) since I had a little issue on another order and it's not like they sell probably more that 3 auto shifters yearly... LOL..! After hearing my story he must've felt bad after he giggled!!!! Z1 shipped it to LeatherWheels and I'll have it covered and back here by Thursday or Friday. I ordered a steering wheel emblem as well plus they're out of rear diffusers until a week or so. Post that thread separately! ???

Just spoke with Mike at Redline(we've used him on brothers 968, Uncles 968 and 2002ti) and he sent me another one at 30% off the last one because I referred him, plus as a great customer service move. He's suppose to do my steering wheels on my 280Z and the Z32. But the shipping is wild!!!
And since doing business with Chris, he does great work, club member, local... Can't go wrong with either. Chris I can still hear you laughing about my loss!!! Thanks Z1

Got the new shift **** in from Chris at LeatherWheels and it looks better (if That's possible)! Super quick turn around and superb job!!! Thanks Joel at Z1 for the great price and quick shipping of the donor shift **** and assembly. Steering wheel emblem is nice too...
Redline shift boot cover is scheduled to be here tomorrow

Post pix later once boot cover arrives
