It's not in the way at all, it's about the size of a triple gauge pod, and any person that rides in my car is wearing a seatbelt anyway. Dyed carpet is holding up ok, I used a combo of painted on dye from Pearl Paint, and duplicolor vinyl and fabric flat black.

I ordered it from R and J distributing in california. 1100 shipped. The trans was from a 96, but it whines in a few gears, and it's on its way out.

I don't think it would ever slip on. Since my existing one was pretty beat, I basically hacked it off, left the rod, beat the ebay one into place with lots of cursing, drilled a hole into it (there are only holes on 2 sides), and epoxy'd the stock button onto the rod, after boring out the hole on the ebrake handle a tiny bit. Lots of modding was needed, and I can't go back to stock. But at least it looks better and functions just as well.

I have a complete w58 swap if interested PM me. I personally know Tavarish and he takes pride in his work. The outcome so far is beyond belief.
