It's a piece of metal, they're all more or less the same.

Yes, most are same. But some are shorter than other and different throw reductions.

I got mine from TWM Performance and it's really good. Their customer service is awesome as well.

I just ordered the Perrin short shifter, not really sure how I feel about it's design but I'll definitely post up my opinions on it when it's delivered.

This. There's practically no difference between the available short shifters, other than price, and 1 or 2 that are adjustable.

Don't want to fuss over this, but the Works short shifter appears to have a counterweight on it, and for the price comes with the ball-end plastic spherical bearings and another plastic fitting that you normally have to buy extra. A little more complete and well thought out than other vendors offer?

I bought this one for the these reasons. Very easy install, solid piece, no cutting, no problems. I dont think they very much from one to the other, but I am very happy with my Works!
