Automatic shifter cover - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi everyone,

I have been considering buying an after market automatic shifter cover for my evil baby. The only one I see out there is the Hurst and it's a couple hundred dollars. I don't think I want to invest so much in such a small cosmetic change. Also, I don't love the Hurst stick and think it would be weird to have a Hurst cover with a different stick. Any suggestions? I haven't found anything on the vendor sites. Here's a link to the Hurst cover, which ain't too shabby (I may purchase it if there are no alternatives: http://www.amazon.com/Hurst-5380432-...+hurst+shifter

Thanks, but I'm looking for the actual plate and my car is an automatic, not manual.

This is for the auto L99 will also fit the shifter plate.

The Hurst shifter is not only a cosmetic upgrade, it provides a much firmer and solid shift. It may still be on sale directly from Hurst for 279.00 which is almost half price. You may not want to invest that much but it is the best and most attractive auto shifter you will find for the Camaro

Well I'm not telling you what to buy it's you choice & car. I have had 3 different shifters from original to the one I finally like. I bought the Hurst shifter plate without the shifter because I liked how it lights up on both sides & can see it good in the dark. I have a drake shifter & a few others I know like it to. Click on my signature & it will take you to my build to look at it. Like I said it your vehicle-----Good Luck

Page 6 post 148 will give you a good pic. of what I'm saying Let me know what you think.

You also might like the. DSV-E Brake Leather Boot also. It really goes good with the whole console.

I like the look of the Hurst plate best. Especially combined with the Drake shifter. It looks downright mean. Thanks.
