What all would I need to do this? Is there retailer that sells the entire kit? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks | | |

Any automatic can be installed with a floor shift without making the opening look like a rat chewed the floorboard. After cleaning up the opening, a light-guage sheetmetal cover plate could easily be fabricated and installed for a really nice look. Good luck with your project whatever route you choose.

I can look tonight for a part #. I think the kit was about $35.00. What ya going to do with the Lokar floor shifter? How long is it? | | |
