Default Shop to install F-Sport Short Shifter

Before anyone recommends Tommy @ Musicbox I tryed calling and he has not done this before on an IS250 and did not quote me a price.

Does anyone one have a shop they can recommend to me where I can my short shifter to get installed in the 626 area? Or maybe even a fellow CL member that has experience in this.

Thanks!!!

tommy's price is very good, just so you know... he could have easily ripped me off but he's a good honest guy, and his work is really clean, he wouldnt mess around with your car unless he's sure about what he's doing

If he cant do it, he'll probably give you good recommendation too =)

i would think he knows HOW to do it but rather can't give you an exact price since that would involve him knowing exactly how long it takes.

fwiw, most short shifters take <1hr to do so perhaps you can use that as a baseline with him?

it was like that when tommy was first learning how to do suspension work on the 2is. after a few times, he had it down pat.

but like everyone else has said, his work is top-notch.

I know his work is top notch, cuz he did my springs. I'll contact him again.
