JPM you buy the shifters and boots just for the ring at the base where they join the console? I would have to look at the parts first but I might be able to make those parts for you.

We don't go through a lot of them so we never thought about having them made. This was our first order at 20 pieces and I imagine we won't sell them by the end of the year as shifter sales have kind of died down. Of course, if you don't mind making onsey twosy stuff for a good price, we're always interested.

Now you tell him

Sol Asylum · « **Reply #27 on:** August 26, 2011, 08:20:43 PM »

I know I could do the Sol ones the only issue would be the chrome plating on them but I could do them in just about any color you would want. The cool part of the casting that I do is that small orders aren't an issue.

If there are other small plastic parts that you need keep me in mind.

Critter how was I to know?

I cut out a hollow circle of 1/2" birch ply for my JPM shifter. 4 small screws around the silver ring and it works perfectly.

I guess your right Critter.

But in my defense I have had a few distractions of late.

PS all of those that got a great deal on a shifter and boot because I failed to help JPM out sooner can thank me later. All of those that are thinking they can get that great deal latter better think again and order now because I will do what I can to help JPM in the future.

Well I got my shifters today. I had a lot of fun with it, just a little cut here and there.

I read threads on how hard some folks had removing the screw that attaches the shifter shaft. I had no such issue.

Thanks again JPM...I love it...can wait to try it out tomorrow.

Hey Sol Asylum,

I tried to PM you, but your mailbox is full. I may be able to help you out if you want one of the Solstice Shifters with orange stitching.

PM me if interested.

Hey Sal,

Sorry, I was on another call when you called. You can either call me again or email me your paypal address so I can send you an invoice.

You cannot! (Well, you could cut it off, but it wouldn't help with the new one.)

JPM (this vendor) used to (possibly still does) sell a complete setup of replacement shaft, boot and changeable knob. That is your only alternative to the OEM though.

Sly Bob · « **Reply #43 on:** September 22, 2011, 05:26:34 PM »

Yeah, it doesn't just unscrew...
