Wait a sec, you have a 2k3 right? If thats teh case, there isn't one for our cars. Each of the shifters you posted only goes to 2k1. We get screwed by the pullup lever for reverse.

B&M...

I've had both installed on my AE and the B&M is a better piece of equipment hands down. Search on my name and B&M and you'll find some threads about this comparison.

Post once you get it installed. I'd like to know your opinion on ease of install and use.
I was thinking of getting the same thing myself.

B&M Short Throw Shifter

I have the B&M, it was very notchy at first but seems to have loosened up quite a bit now. But after 2 months, it's still tough to get into reverse, but all other gears seem fine. All the notchiness is made up by the short throw, it is awesome compared to stock.
