^I love the touch I wish they had a gsm version. You should get the everything plan with sprint $99 for unlimited voice, text, data and gps.

I like it, how much did it set you back? I think the shifter looks very cheap in my 98 es300

Got it from a Camry owner over at Toyotanation for $45. Prime condition.

The woodgrain on the shifter is light than the rest of the center, but it's only noticeable in direct, extreme sunlight. Overall not too bad.

Yay, I'm on my lappy now . Love the mod

If "LEVOC" isn't inscribed into it, you should get rid of it and put your forum name. That would be pretty cool

Not really, just gotta know how to properly connect wires n such. And I got it off the for sale section from a Camry owner who had wrecked his car and had to sell it.

That looks really sweet!

Couple questions:

Is the sleeve around the bottom real leather? It seems to match your interior perfectly.

How about the O.D. Button? It must have one. Was it easy to connect up?

Yup, genuine leather and it does match well! The previous owner had a 5 speed camry so the sleeve was actually cone shaped and much much bigger. I just cut it down so it was small enough to fit. And yes it has an OD which is in the perfect location for sport-like down shifting. It takes the most common and simple knowledge of wiring to connect it to the old wires. Very easy mod!
