Can you elaborate on why you "didn't like the feel of it?" The reason I am asking is because I had a Steeda Tri Ax shifter, but I had to get rid of it because for me, the reverse lock out wasn't working like it should. I would find myself putting the car in reverse when I wanted to be in first, and I have been driving manual transmissioned cars for 25 years. It was quite embarrassing/frustrating. I have been thinking about giving the Barton a try, becuase I don't want to drop $400 on an MGW right now.
