Possible new shift **** for 6spd guys.

So ive read about how its difficult to find a shift **** for our 6spds due to the reverse lockout thing. Well i was looking at a thread that was made in the 6th gen forum

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=534980

and on post # 7 you can see that the guy used a EVO MR **** and it looks really clean. if you scroll further down he tells you the fitment. Well i was wondering, how difficult would that be for the 5.5 gen guys to do? i have a 6spd myself and the OEM one is too bland. So, have any of you guys tried to use the EVO MR ****? If it works, then im down to get one myself. Its made by MOMO and its weighted so its good in quality.

Here is the picture for those that are too lazy to click the link:

Nothing.
But people like modifying the inside of their car where they can.
After all, that's where you spend your time when you're driving.
Besides, a heavier **** feels better through shifts.
