Yea that's ridiculous to say the least. I'm reaching the point where I think I'm just going to take it to an upholstery shop and have them re-do it in black. It's just getting down right ridiculous for this one piece and it's like finding a needle in a haystack here on the forum.

Yea that's what I was thinking I may do or go for the 98+ shifter depending on which is cheaper.

98+ gated shifter assembly has been as low as 180 but if your not into wiring that may not be the best option. There is no way the upholstery shop will charge that much for re doing the shifter right?

I'm really going to look into this man and see what it would cost. We are going to get this problem solved soon....haha.

I paid around $150 for both the steering wheel and the shifter on an old LS400 I owned about 4 years ago. Here's the pic:


Just go to a shop and get a quote dude, it'll probably cost you less than $100. Also, black is pretty easy to match, unlike the tan on my old car.

That's what I figured JDMCelsior. It can't be more than $100 to get done and like you said black is not that hard to match. When I get some free time soon I will head to a shop and find out and let xspsi6 know the price.

Well for my sake and xspsi6 we both hope you go through with that 5spd swap pronto and let us know when you plan on selling your shift ****

Go to your local **** shop, find the biggest **** that fits your grip and ask the person at the front dest if you can take it for a test drive.

Too bad my tan one cracked to pieces and so did the cheap aftermarket one I got. Else I'd take it apart and see if I can SEMS dye it. Thing works great and so far my panels have come out looking nice.

Wonder if it's worth the trouble to buy 1 more tan one and dye it. Really hate the OEM length of it, size really doesn't do it favor in this case...

Don't get a tan one and dye it black. That is the current situation I am in right now. It's the only thing that was SEMed dyed that is faded in my whole car. This is one of those few pieces that actually needs to be OEM black since you will touch it every time you use the car.
