TCI streetfighter shifter

[Fstrpst]

Hey guys. I had a fellow tell me you can install the 2010-2012 TCI streetfighter shifter in a 2005-2009 s197. He said all you have to do is trim the console a bit. Anyone on here know if that’s correct or not. Thanks in advance.

I’d like to know also. I’ve heard you need to enlarge the hole in the console, and get a 10-12 bezel. The mounting points and shift cable are the same. So says the intranet.

Was there ever any confirmation on this? I am also curious.

I have one of the first ones for the 05-09 models and I don't believe the bezel is wider but it is longer for the newer cars. Good luck sourcing a bezel, though modifying the shifter shouldn't be too much trouble. It'd be easier to buy a used center console and chop that (so you can go back if you want in the future). If you don't care about the selector window, you could buy a big leather boot and an aluminum bezel from a manual shift fabricator (UPR or the like).

Thanks. Can you confirm if the shift cables are the same to connect to trans?

Are you 5r55s or 6r80 now?

If 5r55s I have early shifter in storage.

Same type of connector? Yeah.
Folks at TCI are decent to talk to (at least, they were the last time I dealt with them...about 5 years ago). You can always call them up and have a chat about the mechanicals.
