9-3 Short Shifter Installed

This morning I finally got the short shifter installed in my 1999 9-3 SE.
What a difference!!
I don't understand why Saab didn't make them this way to start with.
It reduced the 1-2 shift from a 6" throw to a 3.5" throw.
Installation took about 4 hours and consisted of removing the passenger seat, center consol all the way up to the heater controls, changing out the shifter box (removing the ignition and some internals) and re-assembly.
Definitely worth it.
I got the unit from Saab Savior. He now carries this along with short shifters for older saabs.
