Has anyone installed a floor shifter in their box? I was thinking that it might solve some issues that I'm having with the 460 car. I don't really want to do it unless it looks clean and factory-ish, though.

I never liked the way that, say, a B&M floor shifter looked. It's too bulky. I always thought that one of these would look cool though.

I was thinking about one of those nostalgia shifters, but got a B&M Pro Stick instead.
