One thing the T-5 equipped Astro and Safari vans do have is a short throw shifter, shorter than the S-10 vehicles have.
The Astro/Safari vans have the same T-5 in them as the S-10's, just a shifter adapter to move it over towards the driver about 6-7 inches. This is an add-on piece that would need to be removed for putting into a narrower vehicle.
