I am interested. Would like some feedback from users whenever these start to ship... I am pretty happy with the OEM shifter but could be open to upgrading.

I should have the first prototype by the end of the month. EAS will be installing the kit and Tom has agreed to write a DYI. Stay tuned

This is good news. I’ve learned to get along with the stock shifter but I don’t love it.

Surprisingly, the stock shifter gets better after driving it more. That was not the case with my F87C MT. I also feel less vibration from the shifter using the lighter M Performance knob.

Im excited for you, for me, for everyone else. The shifter is definitely one of the weak points of this car. However, I do agree that changing to the shorter knob made a welcoming difference. Thank you for all ur effort in keeping everyone up to date and i cant wait for the diy!

Yes but you need to modify or remove the shift boot.

I might be in as well, but as I don't have an allocation yet I won't know for sure for some time.

Prototype is still being built and tested. I will give an update when Ronald is ready to take orders. I will update the list for people interested in ordering.

I know you don't have your car anymore, but have you heard from Ron?

The last I heard last month, the prototype has been built and will ship out to someone to test fit. He is catching up on his orders from last year. It is not a priority for him because he has been idle for a while. He has built the first batch but I don't know how many at this time. Just be patient because he is doing all this by himself. I will update once I hear from him.
