I've looked at it, these auto shifters seem identicle to manuals.

I think the auto shifter for the AE looks pretty good.

I just got an OEM replacement a couple months ago, what a world of difference in how badly mine was wore down, yeah it did cost a lot but was worth it....

Sorry guys, 5th and 5.5 gen auto kobs are not interchangeable. The 2002-03 has no button. Supposed to be more of a sportier feature for "manual" shifting. Even though, Nissan failed to do this right in the maxima.

At least in the 350z, they had the +\- option on the auto version.

No, they are not. 5th gen uses O/D button, 5.5 gen uses gated shifter. Completely different & incompatible systems. To OP: I have a BNIB Levoc shifter that would work for you. PM me if interested.
